You didn’t expect your relationship to wear you down like this.
You’re intelligent, capable, and self-aware—but over time, the gaslighting, emotional volatility, control, or unpredictability has left you anxious, exhausted, and questioning yourself in ways that don’t feel like you.
I specialize in working with women who are navigating emotionally abusive or emotionally unsafe relationships—whether they are still in them, trying to leave, rebuilding after separation, or recovering from years of chronic stress and self-doubt. I also work with clients managing the emotional toll of chronic illness, anxiety, and prolonged overwhelm.
Many of the people I work with feel stuck in survival mode. They’ve spent years staying calm, keeping the peace, managing someone else’s emotions, or holding everything together while their own nervous system slowly unraveled. You don’t have to over-explain the panic, the confusion, or the deep fatigue of living on constant alert—
I understand it, both professionally and personally.
My approach is trauma-informed, practical, and values-based. Together, we focus on restoring clarity, emotional regulation, and a grounded sense of self—so you can make decisions from strength instead of fear. Therapy with me is a space to slow things down, reconnect with your internal compass,and begin.
