What we can work on together

Anxiety & overthinking

Your mind never quite switches off: replaying conversations, second-guessing decisions, and bracing for what might go wrong. Maybe you analyze every interaction, get stuck in “what if?” thoughts, or find yourself seeking reassurance when you’re not sure what to do.

In therapy, we slow things down, explore what’s underneath the overthinking, and build ways to feel more grounded, clear, and trusting of yourself, even when uncertainty remains.

Boundaries & people-pleasing

Maybe you learned that being a “good” partner, friend, or daughter meant staying quiet, flexible, and putting others first. You may find yourself looking to others to know what you want, need, or should do, or feeling guilty when you finally choose yourself.

Boundaries aren’t walls. They’re a way of staying connected to others without abandoning yourself. In therapy, we explore your needs and values, practice expressing them, and learn to move through the guilt, anxiety, or discomfort that can come with doing something new.

The goal isn’t to stop caring what others think. It’s to feel more secure in honoring yourself while building relationships that have room for both your needs and theirs.

Trauma & old wounds

Trauma is not only the big events. It can also be the everyday experiences that taught you to shrink, stay quiet, keep the peace, or disconnect from your own needs and feelings.

Those experiences can shape how you see yourself, respond to stress, and connect with others long after the original experiences are over. In therapy, we gently explore these patterns with compassion and curiosity, at a pace that feels safe for you.

Together, we work toward understanding old patterns, breaking cycles that no longer serve you, and building healthier, more secure relationships, including the relationship you have with yourself.

Shame & self-worth

Shame says there is something wrong with you for feeling what you feel. There isn’t.

Shame can make you hide, disconnect from yourself, second-guess your needs, or believe you have to be different, better, or easier to be worthy of love and belonging. It can show up as a harsh inner critic, chronic self-doubt, or the feeling that you’re somehow never quite enough.

In therapy, we explore where these beliefs came from and learn to relate to yourself with more compassion. You’ll build the capacity to feel your emotions without being consumed by them, trust your own needs and experiences, and develop a more secure relationship with yourself and others.

You don’t have to earn your worth. You’re learning to live from the belief that it was never conditional to begin with.

Loneliness & connection

You can be surrounded by people who love you and still feel deeply alone. Sometimes, old wounds, fear of rejection, or the fear of being “too much” can make it hard to let people in, build meaningful relationships, or feel truly known.

We explore what gets in the way of connection and practice creating relationships where you can feel safe, seen, and supported.

Motherhood & life transitions

Motherhood and major life transitions can change more than your circumstances, they can change how you see yourself, your relationships, and what you want from life. Even changes you wanted or looked forward to can leave you feeling overwhelmed, disconnected, or unsure of who you are becoming.

The physical and emotional demands of motherhood, along with the challenge of juggling different roles and everyone else’s needs, can make it easy to lose touch with your own. We make space to reconnect with yourself, rediscover your needs and values, navigate changing relationships, and build trust in who you are and the life you’re creating.

Whether you’re adjusting to motherhood, navigating a new chapter, or simply realizing that something needs to change, you don’t have to figure it all out alone.
