Many of the people I work with feel exhausted by their relationship with food, their body, or their own mind. They may be struggling with an eating disorder, disordered eating, body image concerns, anxiety, perfectionism, or ADHD-related challenges such as emotional dysregulation, impulsivity, and difficulty managing daily demands. Others are athletes or high achievers who appear to have everything together on the outside while privately feeling overwhelmed by self-criticism, guilt, shame, or the pressure to constantly perform.
Therapy is about more than reducing symptoms, it's about understanding what keeps these patterns going.

You are likely feeling weighed down by constant anxiety, burnout, or a sense of "not being enough" that leaves you disconnected from your own life. My ideal clients are often resilient high-achievers or compassionate caretakers who have spent so long meeting everyone else's needs that they’ve lost sight of their own. You aren't just looking for someone to listen; you want to understand the root causes of your patterns and reclaim your sense of agency. Your goal is to move beyond just "getting by" and finally feel at home within yourself.

Early life experiences are foundational in our development. Mental health and addiction are often symptoms of repressed emotions related to underlying issues and unmet needs. This can hold us hostage, interfering in our ability to live fulfilling lives and develop meaningful connections with others. It is common to have developed and maintained coping mechanisms that no longer serve a purpose yet have become habitual and with that familiar.
Therapy is a place where thoughts and feelings are explored, validated, and with that normalized. Healing occurs through self-discovery and the sense of empowerment that accompanies this.

May 2026 - You are walking on eggshells. Always on high alert, your highly sensitive neurodivergent brain is always scanning the room to make sure everything is okay. You over-apologize, over-explain, over-share or disconnect and push your emotions deep down. You feel different - too emotional, too “much”. A sense of loneliness and longing for something you can’t describe looms in the background. No matter what you try the feeling that there’s “something wrong with you” just won’t let up. You try to feel better - you have journaled, meditated, tried therapy, medication, breathwork…but nothing seems to help for long
