Feeling isolated? Unsure how to manage demands on you? Struggling with decisions? Can't share feelings because you fear being misunderstood? Feeling overwhelmed? I work with adults dealing with issues including excessive worry, role changes, indecision, unhappiness, interpersonal differences to unexpected life challenges. Psychotherapy helps to gain a better understanding of self and others as well as recognize triggers affecting positive growth and change. You never endure this "journey" alone. Together, we explore beliefs, unresolved issues, feelings, and behaviors to develop healthy coping skills and life choices.

You lived in a narcissistic relationship for far too long. You’re doing your best not to fixate on all that you were told you did wrong – all the times you were berated, laughed at, and put down in front of friends and family. Your phone sits face-down. Picking it up means another argument to no where. Putting it down means another hour of questioning if you were the problem all along. You swing from defiant independence to insecure co-dependence. You used to know what you liked. Now you can't remember if you actually liked any of it, or just learned to. Facing an uncertain future is terrifying and paralyzing.

My jam is working with people who, because of complex trauma and emotional wounds, don't feel real or complete all the time. They're trying their best but can't seem to figure things out. Or, they check all the boxes, work harder than everyone around them, and still feel hollow.
I work with those who feel chronic emptiness, disconnect from others and self, incomplete in their identity, and burned out from extended overfunctioning. I use a combination of neurobiological engineering and sorcery (just kidding on the sorcery bit). If you need that, my contact information is available.

You’re overwhelmed, and the chaos and stress make you question “can life really get any better?” Heartbreak has brought hard feelings you don’t know what to do with. You might even say “I don’t feel like myself” and wonder if something is wrong with you. Your past causes anxiety that you’ve carried for years. You may feel alone and like a burden on others. If this is you, you are not alone.

Overthinking, people-pleasing, self-doubt, and feeling emotionally overwhelmed often come from patterns we learned long ago. While these patterns may have once helped us cope, they can also keep us feeling stuck. Helping people understand & break those cycles is what I love to do.

Whether you're navigating anxiety, unhealthy relationships, unresolved trauma, or struggles with self-esteem, therapy can help you uncover what’s beneath the surface & create lasting change.

What therapy types help with codependency problems?
Both couples and family therapy and cognitive and behavioral therapy (CBT) can help with the relationship difficulties referred to as codependency. Such problems typically include inappropriate feelings of responsibility for a loved one’s destructive behavior, irrational patterns of thinking about such behavior, and family interaction patterns in which the needs of one troubled member override the needs of others in a household.
What happens in therapy for codependency?
Spouses and family members learn and practice how to interact and support each other in a healthy way without sacrificing their own needs or well-being. They learn the limits of their responsibility for their loved ones and correct faulty patterns of thinking and feeling that underlie codependent behavior. Individuals may be encouraged to nurture an array of social relationships and to cultivate their own talents and interests so that they develop a healthy sense of self outside the family.
How does therapy help a person or couple overcome codependency?
Therapy helps people establish healthy ways of being in a relationship. Spouses and family members learn how to nurture and support one another without sacrificing their own needs or allowing the needs of one person to dominate the dynamic. Individuals learn how to say no and set boundaries, and how to maintain their own identity and self-esteem. Therapy helps people understand that they are not responsible for the feelings and actions of others. It also helps individuals deal with the turbulence that can come from living with a person suffering from such conditions as substance abuse and mental illness.
What is the goal of therapy for codependency?
One goal of therapy for codependency is to alleviate feelings of responsibility for and correct irrational patterns of thinking about loved ones whose behavioral problems override the needs of others in a household. Therapy helps people establish healthy boundaries of behavior and speak up for their own needs in a relationship. In addition, people learn how to maintain a healthy relationship, one in which both parties give and receive equally and are able to retain their own identity.
