My ideal client is that person who's caught in the constant mental chatter of "did I say the right thing?" - the one who's always making sure everyone else is okay while feeling one deep breath away from overwhelm. Whether they're an adult tangled in patterns of checking and re-checking, lost in spirals of "what-if" thoughts, or a teen whose heart races every time a teacher might call on them, they're ready for change. They're looking to move beyond the exhausting cycle of people-pleasing and create a life that feels more like them - not just who everyone else needs them to be.
I offer a warm, down-to-earth space where you can show up just as you are - no perfection needed! Using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), we'll unpack those anxious thought patterns, while attachment theory helps us explore how you connect with others. Together, we'll discover how to set boundaries that feel right for you!
I understand how challenging it can be to navigate relationships while constantly worrying about saying the right thing or making sure everyone else is okay. That balance between connecting with others and staying true to yourself can feel overwhelming. If you're ready to build more authentic connections, I'd love to help you find your path forward.

I enjoy experimenting with movement during sessions, such as taking a walk on the trail while we talk, rather than staying in the office. This approach can create a more relaxed and open environment for our conversations. Reach out if you're interested in exploring what this could look like.
