You are not too much,
and you are not broken
You may feel overwhelmed, stuck in patterns that are hard to shift, or unsure why things feel so difficult inside, even when things look fine on the outside.
I support adults navigating ADHD, burnout, trauma patterns and relational difficulties, as well as those drawn to deeper questions of identity, meaning and inner experience.
My approach is relational and psychodynamic, with EMDR and trauma-informed work where appropriate. Therapy becomes a space to understand your patterns and develop a more grounded, integrated sense of self over time.

...you were more marvelous in your simple wish to find a way than the gilded roofs of any destination you could reach:
as if, all along, you had thought the end point might be a city with golden towers, and cheering crowds,
and turning the corner at what you thought was the end of the road, you found just a simple reflection, and a clear revelation beneath the face looking back and beneath it
another invitation, all in one glimpse:
like a person or a place you had sought forever,
like a broad field of freedom that beckoned you beyond;
like another life, and the road still stretching on.
