Is the critical voice in your head so loud that nothing is ever good enough? Are you successful and smart but constantly feel inadequate and filled with shame? Do you walk on eggshells and constantly overanalyze? You are a capable adult who have survived childhood emotional abuse and neglect or narcissistic abuse. Despite years of trying to be "good enough", you still feel like you are doing it wrong and rely on people pleasing, numbing out and external success to try and fill you up. You jump easily at noise, try to read people and say what you think others want to hear in order to feel safe. You are not alone and I can help.

I specialize in working with high-achieving adults (18+) who are outwardly thriving, but carry the invisible wounds of narcisstic abuse, complex trauma, emotional neglect, or early attachment ruptures. You may be someone who’s loving, thoughtful, and aware—but feels stuck in patterns of self-criticism, doubt, unstable emotions, or people-pleasing.

You’re not broken! Together, we’ll uncover the roots of your distress to help you reclaim your inner peace, regulate your nervous system, and create healthy relationships. I offer a safe, collaborative space for you to learn how to manage your feelings, find your voice and heal from the past.
