I utilize evidence-based approaches, including ACT, EMDR, and IFS to support self- acceptance and healing.
Your mind doesn’t shut off. You replay conversations, second-guess yourself, and feel pressure to get everything right. You’re worn down by overthinking, comparing, and trying to hold it all together. You want your mind quieter, your emotions steadier, and to stop feeling like you’re too much or not enough.
I work with teen girls and women who feel anxious, overwhelmed, and disconnected, including those navigating pregnancy, postpartum, infertility, and the identity shifts that come with motherhood. I see people at their core and want them to feel safe. I’m unconditionally accepting of who you are and what you bring to the table.
