Why does it feel like you’re living for everyone but yourself? Your family depends on you for everything from dinner plans to school projects. You take on extra work even when your plate is full. Friends ask for favors, and you can’t refuse. You wish you could find time for yourself, but you hate disappointing anyone. So you keep pushing forward. And no matter how much effort you put in, there’s still a voice saying it’s not enough. Fun feels nonexistent, and you can’t remember the last time you did something just for yourself. You can’t continue like this, but change seems out of reach.
There is another way. Our work together goes beyond medication, talk therapy, and WebMD-level diagnoses. Let’s take a comprehensive look at your family dynamics, relationships, culture, sexuality, and everything else that makes you you. Then, we’ll use EMDR techniques to build new, positive neural connections in your brain and release tension in your body.
Reaching out for help takes a lot of courage, but you’ve already taken the first step by being here now. It’s time to find the healing you deserve. Feel more comfortable in your own skin. Establish firmer boundaries with the people in your life. Reprioritize your own wants and needs. Call me now for your free consultation, and let's get started today!

Diagnosis can help validate suffering, and it can limit healing. Together we will work past labels and do a deep dive to find the root cause of your troubles. From there, we will find the best treatment plan to help you feel free and bright. Many people see gradual relief of symptoms within the first month and substantial results after 12 to 25 clinical hours.
