Change doesn't magically appear like a four-leaf clover, and therapy isn't a weekly book club about your feelings. We'll do focused, evidence-based work - clear goals, practical tools, measurable progress. I specialize in high-functioning clients and those recovering from (or actively managing!) antagonistic relationships, including narcissistic abuse (Narcissistic Abuse Treatment Clinician certificate completed). If you're ready to get out of the fog and back into your life, let's start.
I help high-functioning people cut through anxiety, burnout, perfectionism, and the fog of high-conflict/narcissistic relationships. Expect structured sessions, practical tools, and clear next steps—not endless looping. Narcissistic Abuse Treatment Clinician (certificate). No handwringing or navel-gazing. Just traction.
If you're doing everything “right” and still feel on edge, you're not failing—your nervous system is working overtime. You don’t have to white-knuckle it. You deserve support that’s clear and respectful. If my style fits, reach out for a quick consult to see if we’re a match.
