You’re high-masking, feeling burnt out, or wondering if you may be autistic or ADHD, or were late-identified. You may appear capable and reliable to everyone around you but feel exhausted, overwhelmed, or unsure why things that seem easy for others take so much effort. You’ve spent years adapting, anticipating, and holding it together at the cost of your own needs. In therapy you don’t have to pretend, or push through.
Together we’ll notice your experiences and the ways you’ve been coping, and explore what might help you feel more balanced and grounded. I work with you collaboratively, helping you slow down, make sense of what is happening, and reconnect with yourself.
Your depth and sensitivity are welcome here. I invite you to reach out for a free consultation to explore working together.

I work with what shows up in the body, the tension, fatigue, and overwhelm that come up when you've been carrying too much for too long. Maybe you're feeling burnt out, disconnected, or going through a big life change. Beneath it all, there's often a desire to feel more grounded, more alive, and more like yourself. That's where our work together begins.

I welcome whatever shows up, your tears, silence, tension, laughter, trusting that it's all part of the process. I work in a way that's grounded in the body and the present moment, because real healing happens through connection, not just insight.
