Have you ever felt stuck in a loop you can’t break—replaying conversations, rewriting messages so you don’t sound “too much,” or burning out trying to prove your worth? Overthinking is exhausting. If you could simply stop, you would have already done that. Perfectionism, people-pleasing, imposter syndrome, and a loud inner critic aren’t flaws—they’re habits you learned to stay safe, in control, and on others’ good side at work and in relationships. If this feels familiar, I can help you shift these patterns, calm self-doubt, trust your voice, and lean into your full potential.
In addition to talk therapy, I am a certified provider of the Safe and Sound Protocol, which is an evidence-based listening therapy rooted in Polyvagal Theory. SSP uses specially filtered music to gently calm the body's stress response and can help support folks struggling with depression, anxiety, inattention, chronic pain, and social communication.
Schedule a free 20 minute consultation to see if we are a good fit for working together. I see clients in Ridgefield, Connecticut and provide virtual therapy for clients located anywhere in California or Connecticut.
