High-functioning anxiety often hides behind achievement, perfectionism, and a strong work ethic- yet it can leave you feeling exhausted, restless, and never enough. I'll help you untangle the beliefs that keep you stuck in cycles of overthinking and over-functioning.

Are you feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or emotionally exhausted—and not sure where to turn next?

I work with those who want practical tools, emotional support, and a therapist who truly listens.

When your child is struggling, whether they are acting out, shutting down, or feeling overwhelmed, it can be hard to know how to help. Teens and adults can feel just as stuck, dealing with anxiety, stress, or feeling disconnected from themselves. I work with children, teens, and adults in Richmond, Virginia who are navigating anxiety, grief, family challenges, life transitions, and relationship stress. I also support teens facing intense emotions, identity questions, or self-harm, and adults who want to build healthier boundaries, stronger relationships, and more confidence in themselves.

Whether you’ve spent a lifetime together or are just beginning your journey, relationships provide us with priceless opportunities to learn, grow, and heal. So often, we see conflict and power struggles as “warning signs” rather than precious growth gifts. How can this be when conflict with our partner is so painful? The answer lies in the struggle itself. Beneath the anger, there nearly always lies hurt, disappointment, fear, or sadness. The Imago relationship approach challenges us to embrace our vulnerability and communicate with our partner openly and without fear. When we are heard and truly seen, healing begins.
