Hi, I’m Kristen.

You look like you have it all together, but underneath you’re overwhelmed, mentally exhausted, and wondering why life feels so hard when you’re “doing everything right.”

I help high-achieving women and moms break free from anxiety, burnout, ADHD, infertility, and the constant pressure to do it all so they can feel calmer, more present, and actually enjoy the life they’ve worked so hard to build. If pushing through, staying busy, or putting yourself last worked, you wouldn’t be here. Together, we’ll uncover whats keeping you from feeling more present, create lasting change that doesn’t rely on just trying harder.

If that sounds familiar, you’re in the right place. Therapy gives you a place where you don’t have to keep it all together. Let’s work together! ⤵

My background & approach

Clients often tell me they feel comfortable opening up because our sessions feel genuine, supportive, and free of judgment. My therapy style is warm, collaborative, and practical. We’ll spend less time wondering what’s “wrong” with you and more time understanding why your brain and nervous system have adapted the way they have. Together, we’ll untangle the overwhelm, quiet the constant mental noise, build healthier boundaries, and find realistic strategies that actually fit your life.

Becoming a parent after years of infertility taught me that life doesn’t always follow the plan we carefully mapped out. These days, I’m raising a toddler, keeping up with two pets, balancing work and family, and learning right alongside my clients that taking care of yourself isn’t something you earn after everyone else is okay. It’s part of staying well.

I believe the relationship we build matters just as much as the techniques we use. My goal is for you to leave sessions feeling understood, supported, and equipped with tools that make life feel a little lighter.

You don’t have to keep proving you can handle everything alone. I’d love to help you create a life that feels good to live, not just one that looks good from the outside.
