Adult Therapy
You don't have to keep holding everything together.
You don't have to wait until you're in crisis to reach out.
Therapy can be a place to pause, make sense of what's happening, and begin changing patterns that no longer feel helpful.
I work primarily with adults and young adults who are navigating burnout, anxiety, perfectionism, people-pleasing, boundaries, self-worth, relationships, and major life transitions.

Why People Come to therapy…
-
You may be getting everything done while feeling increasingly exhausted.
Burnout isn't always obvious. Sometimes it looks like irritability, difficulty concentrating, losing motivation, feeling emotionally numb, or needing a lot of effort just to get through ordinary days.
Therapy can help you explore what's keeping you in a cycle of over-functioning and begin creating more sustainable ways of living.
-
Maybe you say yes when you want to say no.
Maybe you worry about disappointing people, avoid conflict, or feel responsible for everyone else's emotions.
Learning to set boundaries doesn't mean becoming uncaring. It means learning that your needs matter too.
Together, we can explore the beliefs and experiences underneath people-pleasing and practice communicating your needs with greater confidence and less guilt.
-
Your mind may feel like it is always working.
Planning. Replaying conversations. Anticipating problems. Comparing yourself to others. Trying to make sure you've done enough.
Perfectionism can look like high achievement on the outside while creating anxiety, self-criticism, and exhaustion underneath.
Therapy can help you develop a more flexible relationship with expectations, mistakes, uncertainty, and your own inner critic.
-
Sometimes we become so defined by our roles that we lose sight of ourselves.
Parent. Partner. Professional. Caregiver. Daughter. Friend. The responsible one.
Who are you when you're not taking care of someone else or accomplishing something?
Therapy can offer space to explore your identity, values, needs, strengths, and sense of self beyond what you do for others.
-
Relationships can bring joy, connection, conflict, uncertainty, and change.
You may be navigating a breakup, becoming a parent, changing careers, adjusting to a new stage of life, or questioning whether a relationship still fits who you're becoming.
Therapy can help you process change, understand relationship patterns, communicate more effectively, and make decisions that align with your values.
-
Becoming a parent can bring profound love and profound change at the same time.
You may be experiencing anxiety, low mood, identity changes, relationship stress, overwhelm, or difficulty adjusting to your new role.
You don't have to feel grateful every minute to be a good parent.
Therapy can provide a space to talk honestly about the parts of parenthood that are difficult, complicated, or unexpected.
-
My practice is trauma-informed, which means I consider how past experiences and difficult life events may influence the ways we think, feel, relate, and respond to stress.
You don't have to identify with the word “trauma” to benefit from a trauma-informed approach.
We can work together with curiosity and compassion to understand your experiences without reducing you to them.
