can you relate to these super fun experiences?

  • Kind to All, Tough on Yourself.

    You never hesitate to support and empathize, but internally, you're often your harshest judge.

    And of course- blurred boundaries and a weighty concern about others' opinions.

  • Never-Ending Overthinking

    You tackle one worry and, like clockwork, another pops up.

    From over-analyzing past conversations to stressing about the to-do list, your mind rarely catches a break.

  • Nervous System on Overdrive

    Your anxiety echoes in a tightened chest, a lump in the throat, disrupted breathing, and that stomach knot that just won't unwind.

THE REALLY NEAT THING IS…

You can embrace your empathetic nature without being overwhelmed by it.

What folks have asked before working with me.

  • That makes so much sense.

    If it helps, before starting private practice I polled my friends and family to ask what adjectives they would use to describe me and here’s what I kept hearing:

    non-threatening, funny, compassionate, thoughtful.” Hopefully that helps me seem less scary 🙂

    I also made this article to help ease pre-therapy nerves.

  • At this time, I charge $200 per 50 minute session.

  • Availability is limited.

    Shoot me an email and I’ll give you an update on whether or not I have any slots currently open, or opening soon.

    I don’t offer sessions on weekends or evenings, I’m too busy strategizing how to trick my kids into brushing their teeth.

  • I’m currently totally remote, so our sessions will be video tele-health sessions through a secure platform called Simple Practice.

  • I’m licensed in DC, MD, and VA. So, if you live in any of those places, we should be good to go.
