The reason some people experience anxiety and others don't is based on our window of tolerance: the threshold in which we're able to cope with uncomfortable situations and stimuli. - - - Making a mistake - A social gathering - Reading the news - You name it - - -
For folks with a narrow window, anything can feel big & hard to manage. This is where spiraling thoughts come in, waking up in the middle of the night, questions of am I good enough, & the inability to make a decision.
We CAN'T stop things from happening. What we CAN do, and what I love to do, is help people learn to increase their window.

If you're looking to feel more grounded, stable, and at peace in your personal and professional life, I can help. I work with individuals struggling with overwhelming worry, feelings of inadequacy, fear that things can’t change, or the sense that life is happening to them rather than with them. I also support clients navigating complex family or romantic relationships, the integration of sexual orientation and/or gender identity with other areas of life, and processing grief from loss, death, or relationship endings.

Struggling with depression, anxiety, trauma, life transitions, feeling disconnected, burn out, and other life pains can be entirely too tough to manage alone. If you are a person of color, navigating these experiences may feel more isolating when you've never been taught to express them or never connected to resources. Whether you know your exact triggers or are completely unaware of the source of your discomfort we can all benefit from a space to be heard, expand our coping toolbox and experience the warmth of self care. Often times, challenges with mental health and psychological pain create feelings of unsafety in our own mind.
