Things are about to get better.
Welcome.
You’ve come to the right place if you’re:
Ambitious and successful, but constantly doubting yourself; part of you is certain that this time they’ll figure out your’e a fraud.
Not sure if the things you’ve been working toward are actually the things that matter to you anymore…or whether they ever did.
Chronically overfunctioning, picking up the slack for those who don’t seem to have to sacrifice anything — just to prove your worth.
Spending too much time away from the people who matter most to you, yet too tired and wired to be your best self when you are with them.
Sound familiar?
Then I'm so glad you're here.
My practice is focused on helping high-achieving professional women who, despite their success, are languishing in self-doubt, low self-worth, people-pleasing, perfectionism and more.
There’s usually a common thread underlying these kinds of problems.
You grew up in a home with alcoholism or other addiction, a narcissistic or emotionally immature parent, or an otherwise dysfunctional family dynamic
You became the self-appointed family mediator, peacemaker, or the “good child”.
You grew up unconsciously thinking it was your job to set yourself aside, stay alert for problems that you need to fix, and make sure everyone else is okay.
It probably served you well back then — it was likely a very smart way for a child or teen to deal with a difficult situation.
But now you’re an adult, and those traits are likely causing problems in your relationships, leading you to overwork and overfunction, and leaving you wrung out, exhausted, and unmoored inside.
If you can relate, reach out today. Let’s talk and see how things can get better from here.
