Welcome. I’m glad you’re here.

You are running on fumes. As the go-to person, everyone needs you because you’re the fixer. But the internal and external noise and never-ending to-do list has left you fragmented and overwhelmed.

The idea of saying “no” feels impossible. And the idea of saying “yes” to one more damn thing fills you with dread and resentment. You feel so much pressure to hold it together, but it’s too much. You want to feel peace, call in ease, and create more balance.

How would it feel to set boundaries, prioritize yourself, and break patterns - your own and generational cycles - that no longer serve you?

Work with Me

  • Body Image & Internalized Fatphobia

    Do you hate what you see when you look in the mirror?

  • People-pleasers

    Are you constantly tending to others and can’t find your voice?

  • Motherhood & Parenting

    Are you feeling overwhelmed, burned out, and isolated?

  • I specialize in maternal mental health. I work with busy working parents, mostly moms navigating pregnancy, postpartum, and life with little ones. I also love working with people managing body image and internalized fatphobia and folks struggling with people-pleasing and perfectionist traits.

I offer online therapy for California residents.


Therapy is a space for you: a warm, nurturing, brave space where you can feel safe to be vulnerable and unburden yourself.  You can breathe, let it all go, and reset.  We’ll navigate this journey together.

I encourage you to call, text, or email to schedule a free consultation. You’re worth the time. I look forward to connecting.
