Too many internal voices shouting at once.
Pulled in different directions by anxiety, self-doubt, or the part of you that's been holding it all together for too long.
Therapy can help you make peace with the different parts of yourself.
Who I work with
Most of the people I work with are the ones others rely on. The friend everyone calls in a crisis. The parent who notices everything before anyone else does. The colleague who picks up what's been dropped. Underneath the capability, an exhaustion that doesn't show up on the outside.
You may not have noticed how much you've been carrying — because you've always been the one who can. Now something's shifted, and 'fine' just isn't cutting it anymore.
How I work
My core training was integrative — I draw on different approaches depending on what's happening in the room: humanistic, existential, relational. After my MA, I went on to train in Internal Family Systems (IFS), which I now use most often. IFS sees the mind as made up of different parts, each with its own concerns. The exhausted part. The part that says yes when you mean no. The part that judges every move you make. Each one has been doing what it thought was needed.
We work together to understand your system better, getting curious about each part — what it's trying to do, where it learned to do this. Over time, parts that have been carrying weight can stop doing it alone.
