Anxiety & Overthinking
Shift from survival mode to presence.
You look like you’ve got it together. You show up. You take care of what needs to be done.
But inside, you feel unsettled, stressed, burnt out, and exhausted. Your mind and body always feel “on.”
Your mind won’t let you rest.
You replay conversations, second-guess decisions, and worry about what might go wrong. Even when things are going well, it's hard to relax. There's always something you should be doing, something you might have missed, or something you could have handled better.
It makes sense that you feel worried and stuck—your mind keeps trying to think its way out of something that needs a different kind of support.
You’re Ready To…
✓ Trust yourself and your decisions.
✓ Feel less responsible for everyone and everything.
✓ Quiet the constant self-criticism.
✓ Feel more present in your own life.
our work together
First, we slow down.
We’ll pay attention to what sets it off, what your mind does next, and how you typically cope.
We’ll connect the dots between what you’re feeling now and what your system learned to do a long time ago to stay safe and get through hard moments. We’ll use both insight and practical tools so you’re not just talking about change—you’re practicing it.
Common questions
-
Individual therapy is a private, supportive space where you can slow down, talk through what’s been hard, and get help making sense of what you’re feeling and why. Together, we’ll focus on practical steps and real shifts you can carry into your day-to-day life—not just insight that stay in the therapy room.
-
You don’t need a diagnosis or a crisis to benefit from therapy. If worry, overthinking, self-doubt, perfectionism, or people-pleasing are taking up too much mental space—or keeping you from feeling present in your life and relationships—that’s reason enough to get support.
-
You’re not alone. Insight can be incredibly useful, but understanding a pattern isn’t always enough to change it. We’ll work on noticing what happens in real time—what you’re feeling, what your mind is trying to protect you from, and what you do next—so you can practice responding differently.
-
It depends on what brings you in and what you want to change. We’ll talk openly about your goals and check in on your progress along the way. I don’t believe therapy needs to continue indefinitely—my goal is for you to make meaningful progress and eventually feel confident enough to live well.
