I knew something had to change when I was stressed about my stress

As a former gifted kid and recovering perfectionist, I thought I was thriving in these fast-paced, high performance spaces.

I wasn’t.

I was exhausted.

I needed help to reimagine my relationship to my work and myself.

That’s when a new perspective entered the chat.

Individual counseling

01 — Personalized roadmap

I specialize in working with high performing women who are recovering perfectionists and former gifted kids. I understand their challenges and aspirations because I am one! This roadmap has personalized tools and strategies to help you release the stress, take control over your schedule, and have the time and energy to do more of what you love.

02 — Curated toolkit

You’ve already read all the things on self-care. You don’t need someone to tell you to eat better, meditate, and journal. You need tools and strategies that work now to release stress. And you need them to not feel like another item to add to your to-do list. I hear you. All of these strategies are evidence-based and most of them I’ve personally tested on myself!

03 — A licensed professional who gets it

As a recovering perfectionist, I understand the demands high-achieving individuals put on themselves - and the anxiety of feeling what’s at stake if we let anything slip. With me, you’ll find an understanding, non-judgemental space to explore your relationship with yourself and reimagine how you live, work, and play.

04 — Convenient online therapy that fits your schedule

Our sessions will be conducted on a confidential, HIPAA-compliant telehealth platform, creating additional flexibility to meet the needs of busy professionals like you.
