Worrying about being "good enough" keeps you from living fully.
I'm glad you're here. You can slow down and take a deep breath.
I specialize in a particular kind of anxiety—the kind that has you questioning your performance at work or school, doubting your place in friendships and romantic relationships, or feeling lost and uncertain about your path in life. When conflict arises, you might find yourself wondering if you've made a mistake or sacrificing your own wants and needs. Sometimes, you may even feel undeserving or "not good enough," even with those closest to you. You have passions and goals, but rather than diving in wholeheartedly, you might hold back, second-guess yourself, or wait until everything feels perfect.
Anxiety and low mood can drain the joy out of life, leaving you mentally and physically exhausted. You’re moving at full speed, yet it’s hard to truly slow down. You wish you could be present and enjoy moments with family or friends, but instead, you’re often preoccupied and distracted. It’s, frankly, exhausting.
Anxiety is your nervous system's natural response to perceived danger and difficulty—stuck on overdrive.
Understanding the Impact of Anxiety and Depression on Your Life
Living with anxiety and depression can feel overwhelming, as if you’re constantly navigating life under a cloud that affects your mood, clarity, and outlook on life. Anxiety might make you question every decision, searching for what you “should have” done differently, which can sap your confidence. Depression often adds to this sense of burden, bringing a heaviness that can make it hard to enjoy things you once cared about or to find meaning in daily life.
When anxiety and depression overlap, you might feel caught between restlessness and exhaustion—unable to fully relax, yet too depleted to actively pursue what truly matters to you. These struggles can impact your relationships, work, and how you view yourself. Many people in this cycle begin to believe they should “just be able to handle it” on their own, making it even harder to seek support. But reaching out is a powerful step toward reclaiming your sense of calm, purpose, and fulfillment.

If you’re ready to make a change, even if it’s just the smallest first step, therapy can be the beginning of finding clarity and renewal.
