I work with thoughtful, caring people who often put others first, sometimes at the expense of their own needs. They may struggle with anxiety, self-doubt, or feel stuck in one-sided relationships. On the outside, they seem like they have it all together, but inside, they often feel overwhelmed, disconnected, or not “good enough.” They want to feel more confident, set healthy boundaries, build fulfilling relationships, and embrace who they really are without fear or second-guessing.
I’ll walk with you through the shadows of your past and present, gently uncovering what’s hard to face alone. Together, we’ll untangle limiting thoughts, build emotional awareness, and craft tools to ease anxiety. I’ll help you grow confidence, honor boundaries, and nurture more meaningful connections.
I know reaching out isn’t easy; it takes strength to take that first step. If you’re feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or unsure where to begin, you don’t have to find your way by yourself. When you're ready, I’ll walk with you. Clients often describe me as warm and calming, and speak of the space we create as a place to breathe and feel supported.
