But first, a quick hello

If you care deeply and your brain rarely lets things go, we’ll probably get along.

For the past decade, I’ve studied, practiced, and taught Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and mindfulness, with a particular interest in helping thoughtful, empathetic women whose minds rarely seem to clock out.

Maybe you replay conversations, second-guess decisions, worry about disappointing people, or play out every possible worst-case scenario before anything has even happened.

You care deeply- about your relationships, your work, and doing things well. I’m here to help you keep all that caring without it costing you so much peace!

Fill out the contact form and I’ll follow up to set up a free 15 min call-just a quick chat to see if we’re a good fit. No prep work required!
Buuuut if you mentally rehearse what to say beforehand, you’re in good company 😊
If it feels right, we’ll find a weekly time that works. We go slow, build trust, and work together to tuntangle the stuff that’s been make life feel heavier than it needs to.
Therapy is only 50 mins out of your week. I want to make sure that it’s applicable to your daily life. Sessions will be a mix of talk therapy, along with practical tools to make the hard stuff feel less terrifying-
so you can worry less and stop absorbing everyone else’s feelings.
