You work hard to juggle life’s demands, but who’s taking care of you?
Therapy for people who’ve spent years putting everyone else first.

You are capable, dependable, and used to holding things together.

But internally, you may feel anxious, depleted, lonely, overwhelmed, or stuck in patterns that no longer serve you.

Early in life, you may have learned to be self-sufficient, emotionally attuned to others, or low maintenance. You became skilled at anticipating needs, avoiding conflict, and carrying more than your share.

What once helped you adapt may now show up as:

• chronic people-pleasing

• difficulty setting boundaries

• over-responsibility

• perfectionism

• burnout

• difficulty asking for help

• strained relationships

• losing touch with your own needs

I’m a licensed psychologist providing therapy for adults in California and Hawaii navigating burnout, people-pleasing, perfectionism, or codependency.

I often work with adults raised by alcoholic, narcissistic, or emotionally immature parents who had to grow up too fast. Staying capable and attentive to others may have once been necessary for connection, stability, or safety. Over time, these ways of coping can come with mounting costs, contributing to burnout, emotional and physical depletion, strained relationships, and disconnection from your own needs.

In therapy, we work with these dynamics directly as they unfold in your relationships, stress response, and inner dialogue. Together, we build greater self-trust, emotional clarity, and a more sustainable way of living.
