If you’re a Millennial or Gen Z woman balancing work, motherhood, or constant expectations, you may find yourself functioning on the outside while feeling tense, overwhelmed, or disconnected on the inside. Many women I work with are used to carrying a heavy mental and emotional load, managing responsibilities, relationships, and others’ needs while quietly ignoring their own. Over time, pushing through can become the norm, and slowing down can start to feel unfamiliar or even unsafe. I know firsthand what’s it’s like to love your people deeply and still crave five quiet minutes to yourself.
I’m a licensed clinical psychologist offering trauma-informed, relational therapy for women. My approach is grounded in attachment theory and nervous system awareness, with an emphasis on understanding context rather than quick solutions. I believe therapy works best when it feels genuine. I show up as a real person. Thoughtful, present, and authentic.
If you’re feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or unsure where to begin, therapy can offer a supportive space to sort through what’s going on and find a path forward. If you’re curious whether my approach feels like a good fit, you’re welcome to reach out for a free consultation.
