Specialties

  • Anxiety

    Excessive worry can take a toll on the mind, body, and spirit. We can address anxiety by identifying the issue(s) and learning skills to help manage the worry and fear.

  • Depression

    Depression can feel like sadness, anger, or both simultaneously. It is also one of the most common health issues.

  • Trauma

    Everyone has experienced trauma to some degree and and it determines our relationship with the world. We can untangle the way that our body is holding to trauma.

  • First-Gen Women

    There are so many flavors for first-gens, yet none of us are built alike. We share similar experiences and challenges when it comes to navigating this world. Let's talk about it and get clarity.

  • Life Transitions

    Change is hard, period. As humans, we are weird to feel safe in rituals and predictability. However, change can also be a step toward a better version of yourself. Let's prepare for your next chapter.

  • Imposter Syndrome

    An experience had by many, especially first-gens, imposter syndrome, will have us doubting our achievements and fearing the true impact of our success.
