Adrianna is worried. She can’t help but question and second-guess everything she does. Did that text to my best friend seem rude? Why hasn’t my teacher said anything about my last project? Did I raise my voice too much with my boyfriend this morning? It never ends.
The tension in her body causes constant headaches, stomach pain, and a fluttering in her chest. Between the missed days at school and being so far behind on assignments, she worries that she’ll never catch up. She’s paralyzed by worry and wishes she could assert herself confidently, but instead, she just reacts to the waves crashing all around her.
Hugo is struggling. His partner recently left him, and he’s overwhelmed by sadness. They’d been drifting away from each other for some time, but it was still a shock.
It’s always the same thing. Every relationship is doomed to failure, and the only constant is the loneliness and despair when it all inevitably falls apart. He looks at his friends, who seem to have it all figured out, and wonders what’s wrong with him. He wants to find a meaningful connection but feels adrift at sea alone.
Nora is grieving. She lost both of her parents within months of each other and ever since has been filled with sadness and struggling to make it through the day. They were her security, cheerleaders, and companions, and she can’t believe they’re really gone.
She wishes she could just see her mom and dad one more time. She doesn’t know how to process the pain of these losses, and it often feels like her grief is steering the ship, and she’s just along for the ride.
Gabriel is trapped. Years ago, while at a party with friends in college, he was assaulted. At the time, it felt like no one had tried to intervene or even believed it happened.
As a result, Gabriel has developed a deep mistrust of people and struggles to connect with anyone beyond the most superficial level. He’s always suspicious of people’s intentions and has become isolated in a protective cocoon of skepticism and doubt. He wants to move forward, but navigating these treacherous waters alone feels drowning.

Adrianna was at the end of her rope when her parents reached out to me. Together, we helped her understand the sources of her anxiety and how they were playing out. Today, she makes decisions out of confidence and knows she’s living in alignment with her true self.
Hugo called me, and we worked together to understand his struggles with connecting and staying connected to an intimate partner. Through our sessions, he’s been able to find greater balance in his life and is currently in a thriving long-term relationship.
Nora felt out of options when she contacted me. We worked to help her start living the life her parents wanted for her. And though she still misses them, she knows that she’s honoring their memory every day.
Gabriel didn’t know what to do, so he called me. We explored the traumatic experiences of his past and the ways that it is still affecting his life today. Through our work, he’s learned to trust others more and feel safer in his own skin.
