Anxiety therapy for women who want to connect to clarity & confidence in their lives.
Finally break free from worry & overwhelm.
You want to enjoy life again—to stop overthinking and start living—but anxiety keeps getting in the way.
You’ve found yourself trapped again in a cycle of racing thoughts, where even the simplest decisions become monumental tasks. Maybe it’s trying to respond to a casual email, deciding what to wear, or even choosing between two brands of peanut butter—every choice feels loaded with the potential for regret. Your mind races with endless "what ifs" and "should I?" questions, making it hard to trust your own judgment. The constant self-doubt leaves you feeling unsure and insecure, as if everyone else has life figured out while you're left spinning in circles, questioning your every move.
It’s as if the anxiety has taken hold of you with an ever-tightening grip. You sometimes feel a tightness in your chest, your heart racing, and your palms sweating, making it hard to see clearly or feel comfortable in your skin. Maybe you’ve been avoiding social situations, convinced you’ll be out of place or seen as inadequate. This isolation only feeds your worry, leaving you stuck in a loop of self-doubt and fear, unable to move forward.
Life’s recent challenges aren’t making things easier, either. A new job, a new baby, or balancing your schoolwork—it can all feel like too much to handle. You’re desperate to regain a sense of peace and control.
Exhale tension, negativity, and ruminating thoughts.
Inhale peace, a positive inner dialogue, and clarity of mind.
MY APPROACH
Believe it or not, the anxious voice you know so well is actually trying to help you. In our work together, we’ll start by gently exploring this voice you know so well and looking at what it’s trying to tell you. It’s been with you for a long time, often rooted in childhood experiences, and it played a crucial role in helping you navigate tough situations. But now, as an adult, the same strategies that once helped may no longer serve you in the way you need. We’ll work together to understand where this voice comes from, identify the situations that trigger it, and find new ways to address it with kindness and compassion.
I’ll guide you in learning practical tools to calm your anxiety, like mindful breathing, self-supporting habits, and creating a solid foundation of self-care. Together, we’ll cultivate an inner best friend—a voice of wisdom, comfort, and capability.
We’ll also dive into the concept of the three minds:
The Emotional Mind: The emotional part of your mind is driven by feelings, often reacting impulsively and based on immediate emotions. While it’s powerful, it can sometimes lead to decisions that aren’t grounded in reality.
The Reasoning Mind: This part of the mind relies on logic, facts, and rational thinking. It helps you analyze situations clearly but can sometimes ignore emotional needs or deeper instincts.
The Wise Mind: The wise mind is a balance between the emotional and reasoning minds. It integrates your emotions with logical thought, guiding you to make decisions that are both sound and compassionate. Our work will focus on strengthening and embracing this.
My hope is to help you put your wise self in the driver’s seat, offering a more grounded perspective when your anxiety feels like it’s close to spinning out of control. This approach can help you not only manage your anxiety but also create a deeper connection with your inner self, empowering you to navigate life with greater ease and confidence.

I’m not trained to directly address OCD behaviors. Much of my work with anxiety focuses on helping clients interrupt recurring thought patterns or loops. If you’re struggling with obsessive thoughts that feel overwhelming, we can explore some of the tools I use for anxiety that may still be helpful, but if you're looking for more specialized OCD treatment, I will happily connect you with a therapist who specializes in this area.
