You're a high-masking adult experiencing anxiety, chronic stress, emotional overwhelm, and relationship difficulties due to burnout. You are a professional, caregiver, or helper who is disconnected from the resources and support you need. You may initially reach out to me for help with complicated life transitions, trauma/PTSD, relationship attachment patterns or even feeling stuck after trying other treatments for mental and physical health concerns, but not feeling better. Your preferred style of therapy is flexible but structured and practical with the goal of creating a holisitc treatment plan to heal and find yourself again.
I understand how anxiety, depression, trauma, and emotional overwhelm can develop in the context of chronic stress, caregiving, workplace pressure, and life transitions. My clinical practice emphasizes client emotional stabilization, mental clarity, meaning-based action, and emotional regulation tools that supports long-term recovery over short-term coping.
I wholeheartedly believe that mental health symptoms reflect a dysregulated nervous system rather than personal failure. Anxiety, burnout, and trauma responses are adaptive patterns shaped by life experiences, relationships, and environments. Therapy should address the whole person—including emotional, relational, and physiological processes.

Burnout and nervous system overload are met by slowing down your survival (fight-or-flight) system and rebuilding capacity. Anxiety, depression, trauma or PTSD, and stress in response to complicated life transitions are explored as meaningful physiological responses supported by nervous-system regulation and sustainable change. You don't have to be ready just yet—I'm here when you are.

My approach blends nervous-system-informed, trauma-focused, attachment-based, and mindfulness-oriented therapy practices. Together, these approaches support burnout recovery, reduce overwhelm, and help release anxiety or trauma patterns. Clients often notice feeling steadier, clearer, more present in their bodies, and better able to respond—rather than react—to daily life.
