You’re constantly doing your best to care for everyone else.

But, what about you?

It’s easy to lose sight of yourself in the midst of life’s demands, leaving you feeling anxious, depressed, or even lost.

I understand how tough life can be. You’re caught in an endless cycle of responsibilities and chaos. You know there are things you need to work on, but finding the time or even knowing where to start can feel overwhelming. You keep pushing forward, hoping for a moment to breathe, but that moment never seems to come. That’s where I come in.

Regain Control Over Stress and Anxiety

Life often demands that you wear multiple hats—partner, professional, caregiver, friend. Each role brings its own set of expectations and trying to meet them all can be exhausting. The constant pressure to be everything to everyone can leave you feeling drained, anxious, and overwhelmed, as though you’re carrying the weight of the world on your shoulders.

We’ll decrease the frustration, anxiety, and exhaustion that comes with doing all the things. By exploring your feelings and understanding your unique situation, we can work together to create a sense of balance. We’ll delve into what’s truly important to you, prioritize your well-being, and develop strategies that foster emotional and mental health.

How Narrative and Psychodynamic Approaches Can Help You Thrive

In our sessions, we’ll use the Narrative approach to explore the stories you tell yourself about your life, relationships, and challenges. By putting these stories under a magnifying glass, we can reframe them, giving you new insights and perspectives. Additionally, with the Psychodynamic method, we’ll analyze any behaviors that may be hindering your growth and explore how your past experiences, childhood and beyond, might be impacting your present. Together we will work to help you become the best version of yourself with limitless potential and able to grip the stars themselves.
