Therapy for high-functioners who are lowkey spiraling, and still showing up! 

From the outside, you’ve got it together. You’re dependable, smart, successful, and constantly “on.”

But inside? You’re tired. Numb. Depressed. Anxious. Over it.

Maybe you’re stuck in your head 24/7, overthinking everything while pretending everything’s fine.

Maybe you’ve never actually felt like yourself—just the version of you that gets approval.

Maybe you’re emotionally maxed out and wondering: Is this really all there is?

Who I Work With

If this sounds like you, you’re in the right place:

  • You’re a high-achieving Millennial or Gen Z who’s doing the most—but secretly falling apart inside

  • You’re the friend everyone leans on, but no one really knows how you’re doing

  • You’re burned out from perfectionism, people-pleasing, or always keeping it together

  • You can’t remember the last time you felt calm, clear, or connected to yourself

  • You don’t necessarily “look depressed”—but emotionally? It’s giving shut down

You're not broken. You’re just exhausted from living on autopilot.

My 3-Step Process

This isn’t about “fixing” you.
It’s about helping you feel like you again—maybe for the first time.
Here’s how we do it:

1. Recognize

We start by slowing down the chaos. You’ll begin noticing your patterns—burnout cycles, anxiety spirals, emotional shutdowns—without judging yourself for them.
Think: “Ohhh… that’s why I do that.”

📍 What’s actually going on beneath “I’m fine”?
📍 What are you feeling (or avoiding)?
📍 Where did these expectations come from?

This is about awareness—with compassion.

2. Reconnect

Next, we turn inward. Gently.
This is where you start feeling again—your needs, your emotions, your voice.
You’ll stop running on autopilot and start learning how to be real with you.

📍 What do I want?
📍 What’s mine vs. what I was taught?
📍 What feels true for me?

You’ll build emotional clarity and self-trust. No more guessing what you “should” feel.

3. Reclaim

Now we integrate. This is where you stop performing and start showing up as your full, aligned self.
You’ll make decisions based on your values, not pressure. You’ll build a life that fits who you actually are—not who you had to be.

📍 What do I want my life to feel like?
📍 What can I let go of?
📍 What would thriving look like—on my terms?

This is where the shift happens.

Quick note: You don’t need to fall apart to get help!

You just need space to feel, reflect, and reconnect with the version of you that’s been waiting underneath the pressure.

Therapy with me is virtual, real, and made for Millennials and Gen Z's who are over the masks and ready to just be.

Ready when you are.
