You may be used to pushing through, second-guessing yourself, or feeling like you should be doing more—even when you’re exhausted. Between work, school, relationships, and family expectations, making room for your own needs can come with guilt. With over a decade of clinical experience, I help high-achieving women, students, and professionals navigate anxiety, perfectionism, burnout, and self-criticism. I’m especially passionate about supporting women in male-dominated environments. Achievement can become a way to measure your worth, manage uncertainty, or feel enough. We’ll explore the expectations you face today and the roles you learned within your family—being the responsible one, keeping the peace, or earning approval through achievement. Together, we can understand how these patterns affect your relationships and choices, and make room for your needs and boundaries. My style is warm, thoughtful, and direct when helpful. If previous therapy gave you insight but left you wanting more direction, I offer feedback and guidance to help put understanding into action. We’ll explore what drives your self-pressure and help you make choices rooted in what matters to you, with less guilt. Ambition isn’t the problem. Your needs and dreams deserve space, too. I offer virtual therapy in California and New York.
