You're overwhelmed, stuck, or feeling like you don't recognize yourself anymore. Maybe it's anxiety that won't let up, burnout that's taken over, or a life transition (including perimenopause/menopause) that's left you questioning everything. You don't have to figure it out alone. Together, we'll make sense of what's happening in your body, mind, and life. We'll look at the patterns keeping you stuck and create practical changes that fit your actual energy and values. You'll leave with both insight and tools. For more on the Perimenopause & Menopause Virtual Group scroll down to 'Groups' on this profile or the practice webpage.
Therapy with me is reflective and pragmatic. We'll explore your story with compassion, look at how your nervous system shapes emotion and behavior, and let go of blame and shame. You'll learn who you are now and decide what changes you want moving forward. This isn't about fixing yourself—it's about creating a life that feels authentic and meaningful to you.
I'm a Professional Counselor Associate trained in IFS, Narrative Therapy, Somatic approaches, and Polyvagal Theory. I work with adults navigating anxiety, burnout, depression, life transitions, trauma, and chronic stress, including the impact of perimenopause and hormonal changes. When you're ready to feel more like yourself, reach out. I'm here to help.

"My brain just stopped working." "I have to negotiate with myself for twenty minutes to start the laundry." "I’m doing everything right - my body still feels like a stranger's." You've probably been told it's something you just have to deal with. Or the classic: "Welcome to getting older." Useless and incorrect! You know yourself. You know when something's off. You are not imagining this. In this science-informed therapy group, ditch shame and self-blame. Focus on your biology and the skills you can build to manage it. Register: 10 weeks starting September 30th.
