THERAPY FOR
People who are Carrying
a lot
You’ve spent so long being the strong one, the dependable one, and the one who holds everything together that now you don’t know how to stop.
I help high functioning
people navigate:
Anxiety, Burnout & Chronic Stress
Perfectionism & Negative Self-Talk
Parenting & Caregiving Needs
People-Pleasing & Boundary Setting
Grief, Loss &
End-of-Life Issues
You carry a lot.
And you’ve gotten really good at it.
So good that most people don’t realize
how much you’re holding, why you’re holding it or how heavy it is.
It’s that somewhere along the way, being responsible for
everything became part of who you are,
and not just something you do.
And now you don’t know how to
put it down.
The real problem isn’t that you’re doing too much.
THE ROOTS OF HOW YOU GOT HERE
YOU LEARNED TO BE THE CARETAKER
You became the one who noticed what everyone needed. The one who stepped in, helped out, kept the peace and held things together—hoping that if you were useful enough, important enough, needed enough, you'd finally feel seen.
NEEDING LESS FELT SAFER
You learned to handle things on your own. To stay strong. To not ask for too much. Over time, receiving help and slowing down started feeling uncomfortable, even when you desperately needed it.
LOVE BECAME A THING YOU EARNED
Achievement, helping, fixing, and taking care of others became ways to prove your value. Not because you wanted praise—but because somewhere along the way, worth started feeling conditional.
When a person grows up feeling unseen, ignored, or neglected, they learn to love by over-giving. Deep down they’re not trying to be strong they’re just waiting for someone to do for them what they’ve spent their whole life doing for everyone else.
You don’t need to be fixed.
You just need space to understand yourself, shift what’s no longer serving you, and live life with more clarity, confidence and authenticity.

People I Work with the Most
STORIES I HEAR FROM THE
Their lives look different. But the stories sound surprisingly familiar.
The constant responsibility. The pressure to keep going. The guilt when they slow down. The feeling that everyone else seems to need something from them.
They don't need another person telling them to "practice self-care." They need somewhere they don't have to carry it all alone.
I'm a therapist, yes, but I’m also a dedicated wife and mom, fiercely loyal friend, dog lover, and someone who loses her phone and keys at least twice a day. I love sunshine, being near the water, growing flowers, and spending time with the people who keep me grounded.
The truth is, while my professional experience absolutely shapes my work, so do the ordinary parts of being human.
I've experienced stress, uncertainty, grief, self-doubt, and those seasons of life where you feel like “too much” and “not enough” all at the same time.
I think that's part of what makes my style of therapy work. Not because I've lived your exact story, but because I show up as a real person who understands that life can be messy, complicated, and sometimes downright exhausting.
YOU DON’T HAVE TO FIGURE THIS OUT ALONE.
If you’ve gotten this far, something isn’t sitting right anymore. You don’t need to be falling apart to deserve support, and you don’t need to have it all figured out — just enough curiosity to begin.
