Feel like you're failing? No matter how much you do, it never seems like enough. Your brain won't slow down and you can't keep up, you find yourself reacting instead of responding, and the feeling of overwhelm is constant. You carry everyone else's needs, but who is helping you carry yours? It doesn't have to be this way. I empower women to regulate their emotions, find peace in the moment, quiet the inner critic, and handle intense emotions with grace. When you are overwhelmed, therapy can be a place for release. When you are with me you will feel seen, learn new strategies, and most of all, you will take back control of your life.
You can expect session to blend learning DBT and ACT skills with building insight, exposure practices, and being challenged to be the best you. Count on me to gently interrupt self-criticism, approach what you're avoiding, and point out patterns you can't see. We will be clear about your goals for therapy and always moving toward the life you want to live.
If you recognize yourself in a woman experiencing anxiety, overstimulation, perfectionism, or ADHD-related overwhelm, I've got you. I know you have 100 things to keep track of daily, so scheduling with me is easy. Click the "email me" button and you will hear from me within 24 hours to set up a free 15 minute consultation call. I can’t wait to know you!
