About

I specialize in working with helpers - therapists, coaches, first responders, teachers, healers, and caregivers - who are exhausted from always being the strong one. Many are parents, partners, or adult children who have spent years prioritizing others’ needs while quietly ignoring their own. They may look high-functioning on the outside, but inside they often feel overwhelmed, resentful, and anxious, and unsure how to stop over-giving without guilt. This way of being doesn’t come out of nowhere; it often develops in relationships that require them to manage emotions, take responsibility, and put their own needs second. My approach is down-to-earth, interactive, and sometimes gently challenging. Aside from talk therapy I draw from a range of approaches, including EMDR, IFS, hypnotherapy, mindfulness, CBT, and breathwork, all depending on what will be most helpful for you. No cookie-cutter therapy here! Therapy is not just about insight, but about real change.
