Therapy for High-Capacity Women

You’ve handled a lot. Now you’re ready to start feeling more like yourself. Specializing in self-trust, navigating relationships, anxiety, and ADHD.

You’re here because

You’re used to being the capable one. But lately holding everything together has felt exhausting.

Maybe you’re overthinking your relationships, struggling to set boundaries, second-guessing yourself, or wondering why things that seem easy for everyone else feel so hard for you. You know you want something to change. You just aren't sure where to start.

Those things that typically get you through it? They’re not working this time.

Maybe you’re finding yourself…

  • Overthinking conversations, decisions, and what other people might be thinking

  • Feeling overwhelmed by emotions you can’t quite make sense of

  • Putting everyone else’s needs first and then feeling resentful, guilty, or depleted

  • Repeating patterns in your relationships that you thought you’d moved past

  • Knowing you want something to change, but not knowing where to start

Willpower and pushing through can get you through a lot. They just won't create lasting change. There is a way to feel more grounded, more confident, and more like yourself.

Hi, I’m laura.

I help you make sense of what you’re feeling and change the patterns that keep you stuck.

My approach is collaborative, down-to-earth, and integrative. We’ll look at the bigger picture, including your thoughts, emotions, body, relationships, and the experiences that have shaped you.

You don’t need to have the perfect words or everything figured out before you walk through the door. You can think out loud, bring me the thing you’ve been analyzing for three weeks, or show up not knowing where to start. We’ll figure it out together.

My specialties

I provide specialized support to women who are ready to feel more confident, grounded, and like themselves again.
