You’re exhausted from feeling overwhelmed, anxious, and “too much” or “too sensitive”. You’ve always been the one who noticed everything - others’ moods, unspoken tension, what needed to be done - and stepped up before anyone asked. Over time, that deep sensitivity turned into overthinking and people-pleasing.
Imagine if you could fall asleep peacefully without thinking about that one text message for hours. Imagine if you could state your boundaries without giving yourself a tension headache. Imagine if you could joyfully spend time with your kid or your partner without being totally disconnected.
Together we’ll go deeper than just talking. Using music, guided imagery & somatic tools you'll shift your familiar patterns and access true calm and confidence. We'll laugh, curse, rage against the patriarchy, and reclaim your power together. I'm not a "vanilla, just-nod-and-smile" sort of therapist because no one has time for that kind of BS in 2026.
No music experience needed - just a desire to deeply explore and heal. Book your free 20-minute intro call today to see if we’re a good fit. I’d love to support you!
