who you are
i love working with creatives, queer or neurodivergent folks, & anyone unpacking identity, trauma, & burnout from a world that demands too much. if you’re struggling with people pleasing, relationship conflict, perfectionism, a recent adhd diagnosis, family dysfunction, or just trying to survive late-stage capitalism—you’re in the right place.

relationship conflict
let’s unravel your attachment tendencies with empathy. how did this fear of abandonment begin? spoiler: it’s not your fault. we’ll go back to the root—slowly, gently—& give that younger you the love they didn’t receive. we’ll talk through conflict with your partner, roommate, parent, or boss & explore what your body feels in those moments—panic, anger, freeze—& build a plan to regulate, advocate, & speak your truth.
adhd
you’re not lazy, i promise. maybe you’re waking up too late again, procrastinating, & then beating yourself up. together, we’ll explore adhd through a lens of compassion & curiosity—making boring tasks more fun with body doubling & reframing “flaws” as strengths. ever find yourself on a adhd side quest? like all of a sudden you're in the bathroom holding almond milk & a screwdriver with no memory of why? been there!
perfectionism & anxiety
is your inner critic yelling “you suck!” on repeat? let’s sit with them & figure out what they’re trying to protect. maybe there’s a sad, scared part underneath that’s never felt seen. together, we’ll hold space for all your parts—the little you, the capable you, the sensitive you—& let some of that pressure melt away.
codependency
are you holding it together for everyone else? maybe you’ve been told that’s your superpower—but now you’re drowning. do you script your sister’s conversations with her boss or feel responsible for strangers’ feelings on airplanes? if you had to be the grown-up when you were still a kid, that makes so much sense. let’s unlearn what survival taught you & practice boundaries—even when they feel terrifying.
burnout & depression
are you a teacher pouring into 300 kids a day & collapsing at night? a mom of tiny overstimulating humans you adore (but also want to hide from)? a gen z-er burnt out from school & side hustles? a millennial who's been grinding for years & still can’t afford a house—or eggs? let's name that exhaustion & get you space to breathe.
i'll sit with you in the darkness as long as it remains & overtime we will move towards hope & levity together.
your 20’s are hard. i get it. you feel lost & like you just don’t know where you belong. maybe you feel like you’re constantly quitting. but quitting means you’re trying! & that’s what your 20’s are for- trying things out & seeing what sticks. it’s all leading to something, i promise
