Therapy for Life Transitions & Stress

Support for burnout, caregiving, career changes, and those “I don’t feel like myself” seasons of life.

Even the most expected life changes can feel disorienting. Whether you’re starting over, shifting roles, or trying to keep everything afloat while slowly burning out—these experiences deserve care, not just coping.

I support individuals navigating personal and professional transitions with compassion and clarity. If you’re feeling stuck, numb, exhausted, or uncertain, therapy can be a place to land and reset. You don’t have to keep pushing through alone.
