Explore the therapy areas I work with most often, and choose the one that feels closest to what you’re experiencing.
Midlife Divorce
Divorce can bring identity shifts, emotional disruption, and the difficult work of rebuilding your life.
Affair Recovery
After your affair, you may be carrying guilt, shame, grief, confusion, and questions about who you are and what comes next.
Perimenopause & Menopause
Perimenopause can bring emotional changes and identity questions that make it harder to continue living by current expectations.
Anxiety & Panic
Anxiety can look like overthinking, panic, tension, and a body that stays on high alert—even when you appear calm on the outside.
Trauma & Overwhelming Experiences
Trauma and overwhelming experiences can continue to affect your body, emotions, relationships, and responses in the present.
