Hi, I'm Myla welcome to my page! Many of us on the outside, look like we have it together. My clients are responsible, capable, and trustworthy. But on the inside, their mind rarely slows down. It looks like: replaying conversations after meetings, overthinking emails or worrying about making mistakes that others will notice.
Many high-achieving professionals struggle with anxiety in the workplace, even when they’re good at their jobs. You might feel pressure to perform, fear being judged by coworkers, or hesitate to speak up in meetings. Over time, the constant overthinking and imposter syndrome becomes exhausting.

Connecting with a therapist can be a difficult step - but for many, it's a step to growth, healing and change. Worries, stress and hurtful experiences can feel overwhelming. I support clients from all walks of life with warmth, compassion, and non-judgment. Together, we can start to understand what's been going on for you, and together, we can find strategies and tools that can help you cope. My work is grounded in feminist and anti-oppressive practices, and my approach is queer positive, harm-reduction focused, neurodiversity-affirming and body positive.

New clients welcome! Being an adult can be hard! Navigating relationships, work, parenting, and day-to-day stress is enough in itself; add in trauma and negative self-talk, and in time you are left feeling helpless and asking yourself, “What now?”. You want to feel better but despite your best shot it just isn't happening.
As a wife, mom, friend, former teacher and therapist, I get it (really, I do!)

Feeling overwhelmed by depression, anxiety or trauma can begin to shape how you show up in your life—within relationships, at work, and in how you see yourself. Many people find themselves constantly managing stress, feeling disconnected, or stuck in patterns that are difficult to change.
My work focuses on trauma, PTSD, emotional regulation, and the ways difficult experiences impact identity, relationships, and day-to-day functioning. Therapy is reflective, structured, and focused on helping you gain clarity, stability, and practical tools for meaningful change.

Dear People-Pleasers: I work with people - often men - who are known for being easygoing and competent, but struggle to know what they want and ask for it. Many have learned to prioritize harmony over honesty, and feel lost despite outward success.
You might notice that: You focus on making others comfortable, and what will cause the least disruption or conflict. Small decisions are difficult. Boundaries are alien. Saying "no" is unpleasant, so you agree to things and feel irritated, resentful or drained afterwards. It's difficult to identify your feelings, values, or preferences, and people don't seem to know 'the real you'.

Feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or disconnected—either in your relationships or within yourself?
Many people come to therapy feeling caught in repeating patterns, unsure how to move forward, or exhausted from trying to manage everything on their own. I help individuals and couples gain clarity, improve communication, and create meaningful change.

I believe that therapy works best when we can show up as real people - messy, curious, and fully human. My approach is grounded in authenticity and empowerment; I don't see myself as the expert on your life, but as someone who walks alongside you as you reconnect with your own wisdom and strength. Together, we'll create space for honesty, self-compassion, and growth. Even when things feel hard or uncertain. At the heart of my work is the belief that healing doesn't mean becoming someone new - it's about coming home to who you already are. I'm looking forward to journeying home next to you!

Life often feels like it’s moving faster than we can keep up. In the rush, emotions can feel messy or overwhelming, and relationships may feel strained or uncertain. Many people I work with share that they feel anxious about closeness, unsure of their needs, or disconnected from themselves. They want space to slow down, make sense of what they’re feeling, and create healthier ways of showing up in their relationships and daily lives.

I work with adults who discovered they are autistic and/or ADHD in their teens or adulthood, and are now making sense of life through a new lens. There may be relief, and there may also be grief. You might be healing from years of subtle (or not-so-subtle) criticism or misunderstanding, grieving from missed support, or untangling from harmful labels. Perhaps you have carried the belief that you are "too much" or "not enough". You may be rebuilding self-trust after pushing past your nervous system for years. This is space to explore who you are beyond survival.

Accepting New Clients! You’re tired of the same patterns—numbing with substances, chasing connection that never feels secure, or pushing people away before they get too close. Deep down, you know there’s more to the story. The anxiety, shame, and disconnection aren’t random—they’re signals. I help adults struggling with addiction and attachment issues understand those patterns and heal from the inside out. There is a way forward, and it starts with getting real about what’s not working.
