Hi there, I'm Mary Lou! I'm really glad you're here. This is a space where you can speak freely, be yourself, and know you're not alone. Whatever brings you in today, we'll work through it together - at your pace, in your way. You're in the right place. I use psychodynamic therapy to help you understand how your past experiences, especially from childhood, are quietly shaping the way you feel, think, and behave today. Once you become more aware of these patterns, you can make healthier choices and feel more in control of your life.

Maybe you’re successful, driven, and constantly thinking 20 steps ahead, yet stuck in overthinking, pressure, or endless “what if” scenarios. I work especially well with high-performing people who struggle with anxiety while trying to keep everything together at work, in leadership roles, or in their personal lives. As someone who understands anxiety personally, I know how exhausting it can be to live in a constant state of anticipation and mental overload. Together, we can work on calming the noise, rewiring unhelpful thought patterns, and helping you feel more grounded without losing the parts of yourself that make you successful.
