You’re tired of questioning every decision and constantly asking for reassurance.

You love your people, but you are starting to build resentment because your needs are being neglected.

You already struggle to correct someone for getting your order wrong, so it feels even more impossible to tell your partner how you’re really feeling.

You are used to being the person that has it all together, so you don’t understand why it suddenly feels so hard to keep up.

You want to feel fulfilled in motherhood, but you don’t understand why you get irritated so easily.

I would love to meet you! Here are some ways we can work together:

Therapy for Anxiety and People-Pleasing

You are constantly overthinking and you find it hard to trust yourself. You hear yourself saying “yes” while on the inside you’re screaming “no”, and you’re starting to feel resentful.

Therapy for Moms

You knew motherhood would be challenging, but you didn’t expect to feel constantly overstimulated and on edge. Everyone keeps telling you to enjoy these years, but you feel way too burnt out to enjoy anything.

Couples Therapy

Every conversation with your partner feels like it goes in circles, leaving you stuck and frustrated. Arguments often leave you in a worse place than where you started, and now you feel afraid to bring things up at all because it never seems to help.

EMDR Therapy

In your head you logically understand that you’re enough, but it’s really hard to truly feel it and believe it. Your body feels on edge and nervous even though you can’t pinpoint a reason why.

EMDR Therapist in Mesa, AZ

You’re constantly worrying about what others think, putting everyone’s needs before your own, and feeling like no matter how much you do, it’s never enough. When things feel out of your control, the anxiety, guilt, and pressure to hold it all together can leave you exhausted and disconnected from yourself.

I get it, and I am here for you! As a recovering people-pleaser, oldest daughter, and mom of two young kids, I know how hard it can feel to keep your head above water sometimes with the demands of life and motherhood, all while taking care of your own needs. 

You don’t have to do it alone. I am here for you on your journey to start trusting yourself, speaking up for what you need, and experiencing joy again.
