Find clarity
and feel more calm
“It all feels like too much…”
You’re smart, creative, and resourceful. Problem-solving and complex thinking are among your strengths, and you’re used to performing at a pretty high level. Even when there’s a lot going on, you figure out how to make it all work.
But lately you’ve been feeling more and more anxious and overwhelmed. Maybe something’s going on that you’re having a hard time handling in spite of your best efforts. You keep spiraling or burning out or falling into the same frustrating habits and patterns, even when you know they’re not serving you. What’s going on?
When we’re overtaxed, our system reaches for familiar tactics or reactions to try to get by, even if they seem to make things worse. If you’re neurodivergent, they might be how you’ve coped in the world this whole time. So often, your present-day struggles—like ruminating, self-defeating behaviors, avoidance or reactivity, overworking—actually helped you survive in the past. And because they helped you survive, it takes more than just intellectual understanding and willpower to unravel them. It takes therapy that engages the body as well as the mind.
By working with the beliefs and narratives that steer your choices and how those beliefs and narratives are alive and operating in your body, we can help your entire system find its way out of the paradoxical or deeply-learned reactions that are keeping you stuck emotionally and in your relationships. The result is that you feel more calm, more connected inside and out, and better able to live with intention and joy.
I use multiple modalities (like IFS and EMDR) to help people work through anxiety and trauma to find clarity, relief, and self-assurance. Learn more about my services and how I work, or get in touch to see if we’d be a good fit!

Get unstuck
Feel more ease, balance, and purpose
We absorb a lot over the course of a lifetime, some of it consciously and some of it very unconsciously. Therapy is where we can examine what you’ve internalized and tap into your strengths and innate wisdom to evolve or release what isn’t serving you anymore. There are legit reasons why you feel tangled up, and investigating the cognitive, emotional, somatic, and environmental factors that brought you here lights the path towards getting untangled.
