You’re Excellent at Managing Everything — Except Your Own Needs
You learned early on to be the steady one.
You became the one who holds things together—reading the room, seeing what’s needed, solving problems before they fully form. It’s a skill that’s carried you far. But lately, the strategies that work so well on the outside aren’t creating the same ease or clarity within. A relationship shift, a professional crossroads, grief you didn’t expect, or that quiet sense that something is off keeps pulling at you. You’ve done the books, the podcasts, the mindset work. You want depth, not platitudes. You want change that holds.
With therapy, you can:
Stop overfunctioning and start relating, without abandoning your standards
Set and keep boundaries with family, partners, and work without guilt or collapse
Feel grounded in uncertainty and make clear decisions you trust
Understand the “needing to fix” pattern and choose connection over control
Communicate in ways that get you seen, heard, and understood, not just respected
About my therapy background & approach
I’m a licensed psychotherapist in California, Washington, Colorado, and Utah who works with high-achieving adults, couples, and families navigating complex relationships and big life transitions. Many of my therapy clients are the “steady ones” in their systems—people who carry a lot of responsibility and are ready to understand why certain patterns keep repeating.
My work is trauma-informed, attachment-based, and systems-oriented. I pay attention to your nervous system, your history, and the roles you’ve held in your family and work life. I also have specialized training in perinatal mental health, emotionally focused couples therapy, and family systems, which means we can look at how old dynamics, current stressors, and practical constraints all intersect.
In session, you can expect a mix of depth and practicality: naming what’s really happening, understanding the patterns underneath, and experimenting with new ways of relating—to yourself, to the people you love, and to the structures you live and lead in.
