MA., Registered Psychologist/Founder
(She/Her)

Many women and teen girls I work with carry an unspoken awareness that something about the expectations placed on them doesn’t quite fit. It can sound like: “I should be able to handle this better,” “Why can’t I just keep up?” or “I don’t feel like myself anymore.”

I often hear from clients who feel pressure to be a certain way—successful, agreeable, confident, productive—while internally feeling overwhelmed, self-critical, or disconnected from who they really are. For some, this shows up early in adolescence as they begin navigating friendships, identity, and comparison. For others, it emerges later in life through career demands, relationship stress, or major transitions that leave them feeling lost in their own expectations.

At the core, many of the women I work with are trying to find space to breathe, understand themselves more clearly, and feel more grounded in who they are.

"Every woman has to navigate a world full of expectations, find her voice, and write her own story. But this can be difficult.  Sometimes we just need to give ourselves permission to change our story, find our true voice, and move forward authentically. 

This is my passion, walking beside girls and women as they explore their beliefs, find their direction, and learn to express their authentic self.  I truly enjoy helping to guide the process, and seeing them embrace and become who they are supposed to be."
