I work with high-functioning women and couples who feel like they’re drowning in lives they once wished for. On the outside, they’re managing everything. On the inside? They're spiraling in burnout, resentment, and emotional disconnection. They’re tired of faking fine. They miss the spark. They want clarity, connection, and to stop second-guessing whether they’re the problem. They still love each other, but the distance is growing and they know something has to change before it all unravels.
I help women and couples untangle burnout, resentment, and relational chaos using emotionally focused, grounded therapy. Together, we break toxic patterns, get real about what’s not working, and rebuild connection. I offer individual therapy, couples sessions, and deep-dive intensives when “just talking” isn’t cutting it.
If you’re emotionally exhausted, quietly spiraling, or wondering if you’re the problem- you're not alone. Therapy doesn’t have to feel cold or clinical. I show up as a real human first and a therapist second. If you’re ready for honesty, humor, and healing that sticks, let’s talk about what’s next.
