Emotional & Interpersonal Issues

Just because you’ve been holding it all doesn’t mean you have to keep doing it alone.

It’s a lot to carry, especially when you’re not even sure what’s wrong.

Maybe your thoughts are always running. Maybe you feel flat or disconnected. Maybe you’re doing everything you’re supposed to—but it still feels like something’s missing.

Therapy is a place to slow down and really listen to what’s going on beneath the surface. Whether it’s anxiety, burnout, grief, or something harder to name, we can sit with it together—and start making sense of all you’ve been holding.


Anxiety and Stress

Many clients come in feeling overwhelmed but unable to slow down. The thoughts won’t quiet, the body stays tense, and even rest doesn’t feel restorative. Some describe it as being “always on,” while others feel numb, disconnected, or like they’re just faking being okay.

Anxiety doesn’t always show up as panic. It can look like overthinking, perfectionism, imposter syndrome, irritability—or holding it together for everyone else while slowly unraveling inside.

Together, we make space to pause. We look beneath the stress with curiosity and compassion, untangle patterns that keep you stuck, and practice tools that actually fit your life—not just more tasks on your to-do list.

The goal is to help you feel more grounded, present, and connected to yourself.

Depression and Burnout

Clients often come in saying things like, “I just feel off,” or “I’m doing everything I’m supposed to – but I still feel awful.” Maybe the things that used to bring you joy don’t feel the same. Or maybe you’re holding it together at work, showing up for others, checking every box… and yet inside, you’re exhausted, unmotivated, or numb. Joy feels distant. Rest leaves you feeling just as tired.

Depression and burnout can be slow and quiet, creeping in under layers of productivity, pressure, and self-blame. You might feel heavy, disconnected, or wonder why nothing feels good anymore.

In therapy, we make space to pause and hear what your body and emotions are trying to tell you. We’ll reconnect with your values, rebuild a sense of meaning, and cultivate self-compassion—without abandoning your ambition or drive.

Change may unfold gradually, but it can open the way toward a life that feels more like your own.

Grief and Loss

Grief doesn’t follow a script. It might be loud or quiet, recent or decades old. You may be grieving someone who has passed, someone you’re losing slowly, or someone who’s still here but no longer the same. Some losses are tangible. Others are quieter: the end of a relationship, a shift in identity, a homeland left behind, unmet needs, or futures that never came.

Grief can show up as numbness, guilt, anger—or as a strange disconnection from the world around you. Many of us were never taught how to grieve. Some are carrying collective, cultural, or intergenerational grief that’s gone unnamed for far too long.

In therapy, we make space for the heartbreak that has no words. We name what’s been unspoken and honor your grief in a way that feels human, not performative.

There’s no rushing the process. Healing unfolds at its own pace, and you’re allowed to take the time you need.

CPSTD (Complex Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder)

Maybe it feels like you’re always on edge, quick to shut down—or you’ve learned to hide how much thinMaybe it feels like you’re always on edge, quick to shut down—or you’ve learned to hide how much things hurt. You might struggle to trust, feel chronically unsafe, or wonder why relationships feel so hard. Even moments of calm can feel unfamiliar or undeserved.

These are common responses to complex trauma—often rooted in childhood, prolonged stress, or repeated relational wounds. It’s not just what happened to you, but what didn’t: the safety, care, or attunement you needed but didn’t receive.

Therapy offers space to gently untangle the story your body holds and slowly shift long-standing patterns. This work is about remembering you are not broken—you’ve been adapting in the best ways you knew how.

With time and care, we can create room for something new to take root.

We suffer not from the events in our lives but from our judgment about them.
