Introduction

On the outside, you keep it together. That’s what you do when you’re “the strong one.” But on the inside, you’re unraveling. You spend your energy managing others’ needs, smoothing over conflict, and trying not to fall apart in the process. But lately, the anxiety is louder. The stress hits harder. Your relationships feel strained, and you’re tired of pretending you’re fine. You want to feel steady again – maybe for the first time in a long time. You’re high-functioning… but emotionally depleted. Sound familiar?   I offer a grounded, supportive space where you can take off the mask. I use a trauma-informed, integrative approach that blends CBT, attachment work, somatic awareness, and mindfulness practices. We’ll work together to unpack old patterns, reduce overwhelm, and help you connect with yourself and others more authentically.   You don’t have to keep holding it all together by yourself. Let’s create a space where you can breathe, feel, and heal – at your own pace. If you’re ready to feel more like yourself again, I offer a free 15- minute consultation to see if we’re a good fit. Your healing doesn’t have to be dramatic – just honest, steady, and real. Reach out today.
