Introduction

You’re the one people rely on—the responsible one, the overachiever, the peacekeeper. On the outside, you seem capable and put-together, but inside you feel anxious, drained, and overwhelmed by pressure. You try to keep everyone happy, meet every expectation, and hold everything together at work and in your relationships. But no matter how much you do, it never feels like enough. I help people who are tired of feeling stretched thin by perfectionism, people-pleasing, and codependent patterns. Many of my clients appear successful but are quietly struggling: difficulty saying no, guilt when setting boundaries, taking on too much at work, or feeling responsible for others’ emotions. If this sounds familiar, you’re not alone—and it doesn’t have to stay this way. My approach is warm, grounded, and collaborative. I combine EMDR to help you process the past experiences and emotional burdens that keep you stuck, and IFS to explore the parts of you that overwork, avoid conflict, or fear disappointing others. Together, we gently untangle old patterns, heal your nervous system, and build healthier ways of relating to yourself and the people around you. Therapy with me is a space where you don’t have to be perfect or hold it all together. You can expect support, clarity, and practical tools that help you feel more balanced, confident, and connected. If you’re ready to stop over-functioning and start honoring your needs, I’m here to help. Reach out to begin your healing journey.
