About

You may be high-functioning, capable, and outwardly successful, yet feel anxious, self-doubting, or emotionally depleted. Many of my clients are adult children of narcissistic or emotionally unavailable parents who learned to prioritize others, suppress their own needs, or stay in control to feel safe. These early patterns often show up later as perfectionism, difficulty setting boundaries, relationship conflict, or a persistent sense that something is never quite enough. You want clarity, emotional relief, and more authentic connection.
