Living as a woman is hard. From the time you were young, you were bombarded with contradictory messages about who you needed to be in order to fit in and be liked.

“Be confident, but don’t be too confident.”  “Be skinny, but not that skinny. Have curves.”

“Be yourself! But also, please everyone else.” “Women can have it all! But also, you’re really going to continue to work as a mom? You’re neglecting your kids.”

Of course, all of this is made even more complicated, if the gender you were assigned at birth does not match who you truly are. Sometimes it feels like no matter what we do, we are always judged, and we are never good enough. 

Like so many women I have worked with, I have felt the weight of trying to be the perfect partner, friend, daughter, and student only to be left feeling like I was not good enough. We have been taught to prioritize others at our own expense.

We can no longer listen to our bodies because we are just trying to survive. We struggle with anxiety, disordered eating, negative body image, depression and auto-immune diseases. 

What if many of our illnesses stem from living in a culture where it has not been safe to live in a fully embodied way?

Many of my clients struggle to identify what their true feelings and needs are and to advocate for them, instead of catering to the needs of everyone else first.

I want you to know that you can find safety, vulnerability and connection to yourself and within your relationships. You can experience pleasure without judgement or guilt. 

I strive to empower women to reconnect to their deepest feelings, desires and needs. Together, we will create a realistic path to live out your desires. I am confident that when we are able to connect to ourselves, build trust through safety and connection, and communicate our needs, we can find a path forward that we did not yet know existed.
