From the outside you’ve got your shit together, but inside you are exhausted. You show up and do what needs to be done to the best of your ability but all while feeling this internal dread you can’t quite shake. You constantly feel like you are having to adjust to fit into everyone else’s expectations of you. No seriously, you probably feel like a chameleon of some sort always changing to fit in. And the higher your stress climbs the more you reach for coping skills that don’t bring you any real sense of relief. You feel like you are going crazy and may have even googled your symptoms to try to figure what’s wrong with you.

Is it depression or is it anxiety? Is it both? Which diagnosis fits? Are you overthinking this like everything else? You are tired and you feel run down and just want to have hope that things can change for the better. But how can you have hope when the idea of finally resting only stresses you out more?

I’m here to tell you that not only is it OK to need help, but helping people uncover what’s underneath the stress and create a life filled with joy is my jam. A life that includes a calm mind and growth from surviving to thriving. Let’s talk about how you can heal from feeling like a stressed out mess to deep calm peace.

Sessions begin with an intake where we explore your past experiences, present symptoms, and future goals. We will dig deeper into the symptoms you are experiencing and explore what a root cause may look like for you based on your past experiences. We will also dip into what your body is telling you about these experiences and come to a working holistic resolution through a somatic approach.
