You’re capable, responsible, and used to holding everything together — yet anxiety, exhaustion, and disconnection have quietly become part of your day-to-day life.
The constant managing, helping, and pushing through leaves little room for your own needs, let alone real rest.
​
You’ve done what was expected. You’ve shown up for others. You’ve worked hard. And still, the clarity or steadiness you imagined feels just out of reach.
You want space to think clearly, understand yourself more fully, and move forward in a way that feels intentional — not rushed, pressured, or performative.
If this feels familiar, you’re not alone — and support is here.

Hi, I'm Carrie
I work with high-achieving, anxious women who appear put-together on the outside, but feel disconnected from their own needs and unsure how to prioritize themselves. You’ve done what was expected, shown up for others, and worked hard — yet the life you imagined still feels just out of reach.
​
Together, we build the awareness, confidence, and skills needed to care for yourself more consistently and move toward a life that feels aligned with your values — not just manageable, but meaningful.
My Approach
I take a grounded, practical approach that blends insight with skills so therapy feels both supportive and useful. We focus on understanding emotional patterns, clarifying values, and building tools that help you navigate anxiety, relationships, and decision-making more effectively.
​
Our work is collaborative and structured, with space to reflect while also practicing new ways of responding in real life. The goal isn’t perfection or fixing yourself — it’s building steadiness, confidence, and flexibility so you can move forward with intention.
​
Sessions are active and practical. When life feels loud or uncertain, emotions can become intense, reactions harder to manage, and decisions more difficult to navigate. Therapy focuses on helping you feel steadier in the moment, understand what you’re experiencing, and respond with intention rather than self-doubt or people-pleasing.
​
You’ll leave with concrete strategies you can use between sessions, so the work continues beyond the therapy hour and into your everyday life.

Step 1: Reach Out
Our first conversation is a brief phone consult where we connect and talk about what’s bringing you here.
You’ll have space to ask questions, share what you’re hoping for, and see if working together feels like a good fit. If it does, we’ll schedule your intake session.

Step 2: Get Grounded
You don’t need to have everything figured out to start.
You might feel overwhelmed, emotionally drained, or unsure where to begin — that’s okay. We’ll move at a pace that respects your capacity and focus, first on helping you feel steadier, so therapy feels supportive rather than overwhelming.
Step 3: Build Clarity
As therapy continues, we’ll work on understanding emotional patterns, feeling more steady in yourself, and making decisions with greater confidence.
The focus is on clarity, emotional balance, and practical change — without pressure or perfection.
