Individual Therapy
You’re functioning, but it doesn’t feel like living
You’ve kept everything together for so long that falling apart doesn’t feel like an option, but neither does staying the same.
You’ve been managing a lot, maybe more than anyone realizes. On the outside, you’re functioning, but inside, it feels like you’re holding everything together with sheer willpower. The exhaustion runs deep. The strategies that once helped you push through, staying busy, staying strong, staying in control, don’t seem to work anymore.
Therapy offers a space to pause that constant motion. Together, we’ll make sense of what’s happening beneath the surface: how your experiences, stress, and relationships have shaped the patterns you keep finding yourself in. The goal isn’t just to relieve symptoms, but to understand the story your body and mind have been telling so you can begin to respond with greater clarity, compassion, and intention.
When Coping Stops Working
My approach is collaborative and trauma-informed. I integrate evidence-based therapies, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), within a framework that emphasizes safety, pacing, and choice.
In practice, this means:
We identify the thoughts and behaviors that keep you feeling stuck or on edge.
We develop tools to calm your nervous system, regulate emotion, and manage stress in real time.
We explore the beliefs that quietly shape how you see yourself and your relationships.
We clarify what truly matters to you, the values, connections, and priorities that make life meaningful.
Over time, you’ll learn how to recognize what triggers your survival patterns, navigate emotions without becoming overwhelmed, and make choices that feel more aligned with who you want to be. Our sessions are active, collaborative, and tailored to what’s most relevant in your life, blending insight with practical strategies you can actually use between sessions.
How We Work Together
The work isn’t about becoming someone new. It’s about coming home to yourself — learning to live in a way that feels more grounded and whole.
Clients often describe feeling more present, confident, and capable of handling life’s challenges without losing themselves in the process. They begin to notice moments of calm that last longer, boundaries that hold firmer, and self-compassion that finally feels natural instead of forced.
The process takes time, but it’s worth it. You don’t have to keep surviving on autopilot. You can learn to trust yourself again, to feel safe in your own skin, and to move through the world with more steadiness and choice.
