If weekly therapy doesn't feel like enough, the extended, focused sessions can help you move through anxiety
& trauma more deeply and feel real relief. See therapy intensives options HERE.

You're holding it
all together.
Who's holding you?
Therapy for women who are self-aware, capable, and
exhausted by it.
Hi, I'm Michaela​​​
—— YOU MIGHT BE HERE BECAUSE
​
"I know exactly what my problem is.
I just can't seem to change it."
​​
You can name your patterns, trace them back to where they started, and explain them to someone else.
And they still keep happening.
​
You hold it together really well, which means most people have no idea. And that's probably one of the loneliest parts.
You keep thinking you just need to get through this next thing. There's always a next thing.
​>>
​
​
>>
Your anxiety doesn't quiet down no matter how much you understand it
You're high-functioning on the outside and barely holding it together inside
​>>
​
>>
Rest does not relieve the fatigue and exhaustion
You can see your patterns clearly and repeat them anyway
​>>
​
​
>>
Something is shifting in perimenopause & midlife, and you don't recognize yourself anymore
You're not sure who you are when no one needs anything from you
But something in you knows that this is not it.
YOU WANT MORE.
YOU WANT TO FEEL DIFFERENT.
​​
​
​
—— THIS IS DIFFERENT​
Therapy that honors
your intelligence and your nervous system.
​
Your mind, body, your history, and your relationships all belong in the room. ​
Not as separate problems to fix one at a time, but as parts of one person who makes
complete sense when you actually look at the whole picture.
​
Most therapy will help you cope. This asks what you're coping with & why it's still here.
​​
​
—— WHO THIS IS FOR​
Intelligent, self-aware, motivated women
who are ready for something to shift.
​
— THE DOERS AND THE GIVERS who are exhausted by how much they carry and don't know how to put any of it down.
​
— WOMEN CARRYING OLD TRAUMA that keeps surfacing in new situations, new relationships, new seasons of life.​​
​
— WOMEN IN PERIMENOPAUSE AND/OR MIDLIFE​ who feel like the ground has shifted underneath you emotionally, physically, and in your sense of self.​
​
— WOMEN IN MAJOR TRANSITIONS like career change, divorce, loss, new chapter, wanting support that goes deeper than coping.​
