You hold yourself to standards you'd never apply to anyone else. Maybe anxiety shows up as overpreparing, overdelivering, overthinking, or a relentless inner critic. Maybe food and your body take up more mental space than you'd like, and you're tired of the rigid food rules and self-criticism that seem to run the show. Everyone else sees someone who is capable, successful, and doing just fine. What they don't see is how exhausting it is to carry the pressure of always needing to do more, be better, or get it right. You're ready for something different, even if you're not quite sure what that looks like yet.

Therapy is a space to slow down, understand what's keeping these patterns in place, and experiment with new ways of responding. Over time, food, body image, anxiety, and self-doubt can take up less space as you move toward a more peaceful relationship with your body and yourself—one that isn't defined by weight, appearance, or rigid rules.

You don't need to have it all figured out before you reach out. That's what the first conversation is for. I work with adults in New York, Maryland, and all PsyPact states virtually, and in person in Silver Spring, MD. Schedule a free 15-minute consultation through my website. I'm looking forward to connecting with you!
