What’s wrong with me?

You want to feel normal like everyone else. Life seems easier for others. You’ve tried new programs, followed the experts, but it always ends the same—overwhelmed, frustrated, and giving up halfway. You feel trapped in a loop of mediocrity and embarrassment, confused by the intensity and persistence of your awful mood. You know something isn’t right.

Your mind feels out of control. You can’t remember the last time you read a book without your thoughts racing ahead with their own priorities. Answering emails or texts feels impossible—your thoughts race while you stare at the message, frozen. You want to respond, but an invisible force holds you back, and instead, you scroll mindlessly through social media, not absorbing what you’re seeing.

You’re standing on a threshold, waiting for permission to feel good enough. You contort yourself into molds that were never built for you—forcing your body, mind, and spirit in the desperate hope of finally fitting in.

What you are missing in your journey to being “good enough” is unpacking all of the ways that you have been made to feel less than and not enough.

The problem you are dealing with didn’t start overnight, it didn’t even begin with you. It’s part of a much bigger issue of living as a woman in 2025 in a culture that prizes work, money, and material possessions over families, peace, and healthy communities.

Even though we know better and have the data & common sense to do better by our families and ourselves.

You might not be able to change the culture but you can change how you exist in it.

Therapy may be for you if…

You’re swinging between extremes of caring too much or not very much at all

You have great relationships but feel like no one really knows you

You’re remembering stuff that happened years ago that you thought you forgot about

When things are good, that’s when you’re most worried the other shoe is about to drop

Heal invisible wounds of the past & find freedom in the present

My goal for my clients is for them to begin to understand themselves and why they feel so unsure of themselves. You will begin to pull back all the layers, even the ones that are uncomfortable to show, to understand why you worry and care so much more than everyone else. So that you don’t have to feel so confused and angry with your brain all the time. You will do lots of talking and you will participate in meditations, visualizations, and art to heal those deeper wounds that affect your relationship to self.

What you Can Expect During Therapy

Getting Started

After we’ve determined that therapy with me is a good fit. We’ll meet for an intake session, in person at my office. You might feel anxious about your first session or meeting with me for therapy. You might also wonder if you really need therapy and if the cost will be worth it. You might even feel embarrassed about coming to therapy. That is completely normal and to be expected.

You may feel uncomfortable talking about yourself, your past, or your family and can do so at a pace that feels good for you. I will keep you accountable to your goals and values and keep us on track when the big picture isn’t clear. I am here to guide you to a less anxious life so you can be more present in all your relationships, all of the time. This work doesn’t happen overnight but you will begin to breath deeper, think clearer, and become more sure of yourself.

Therapy with me isn’t…

Having coffee with a friend, venting about your boss or mother in law, getting yourself more worked up (don’t worry though, my office has tea and water for you)
