We help you move past stress, burnout, and overthinking, so your success finally feels as good on the inside as it looks on the outside.

Does this sound familiar?

  • A Mind That Won't Switch Off: Constantly replaying conversations, worrying about the next project, and overthinking every decision.

  • Smiling Through Exhaustion: You’re praised for your performance while secretly wondering how much longer you can maintain this pace.

  • Guilt for Resting: The pressure to be productive is so intense that taking a break feels like a failure.

  • Success Feels Hollow: You hit every goal, but the feeling of fulfillment you expected never arrives.

INSIDE, you’re running on empty

You've checked all the boxes: the great career, the discipline, the reputation for being the person who can handle anything.

You're the one people count on. But behind the scenes, the reality is a constant battle.

You feel like you're riding a rollercoaster of frustration and overwhelm, and you’re being pulled in a million different directions. 

Perfectionism and self-criticism show up uninvited as you wrestle with a never ending To Do list.

There are days you feel like a failure or like you'll never be good enough. You feel like it's hard to keep going. 

You wonder why things that seem to come so easily to others feel so difficult for you.

Stories from the past seem to play in your mind on repeat.

You're just so. damn. tired.

It's EXHAUSTING living this way...we get it.

You don't have to feel stuck, frozen or defeated anymore.

WE CAN HELP

Our Approach: It's All About You

Therapy isn't just for when things hit the fan. Think of it as dedicated mental real estate—a judgment-free zone where you can show up exactly as you are and explore everything that's actually on your mind.

Our Vibe: Real Talk, Real Growth.

Forget the stuffy, old-school approach. We know life comes at you fast, and your therapy should, too.

We tailor therapy to you. Our style is unapologetically real, relatable, and personalized. We're here to meet you wherever you are on your journey, whether you want to:

  • Unpack the baggage from your childhood or family dynamic.

  • Vent about the minor (but feels major) crisis, like why your favorite workout class being full feels like the ultimate betrayal.

  • Gain concrete, personalized strategies to finally get off the situationship carousel and stop replaying the same patterns on loop.

The Payoff? Next-Level You.

The goal is simple: To help you truly understand yourself, break those toxic cycles that keep triggering burnout, and build a life that feels as amazing.  It’s time to stop just surviving and start vibrating higher.

While we specialize in anxiety therapy for millennials and dedicated therapy for men, our practice provides a full spectrum of therapeutic support across numerous other specialties.

  • First, we can meet for a free 15 minute phone consultation to see which clinician would be the best fit for you.  Then, we will have an intake session, where we discuss some trailheads you would like to focus on. After that,  we can continue to work together in weekly, biweekly or monthly sessions

  • We are out of network providers, which means we do not take insurance. However, we do provide a Superbill, which is an itemized receipt sent to your insurance company for reimbursement. Most insurances will reimburse 90% of session costs 

  • One of the most practical and enduring gifts of therapy is the gaining of tangible skills for managing life's inevitable stressors. These skills act as a lifelong emotional toolkit. Some examples are:

    • Emotional Regulation: Learning how to identify, tolerate, and respond to intense emotions without being overwhelmed (e.g., through techniques like mindfulness or grounding).

    • Effective Communication: Developing healthier ways to express needs, set boundaries, and navigate conflict in relationships.

    • Self-Compassion: Replacing the harsh inner critic with a voice of kindness and understanding, which is essential for resilience and self-worth.

    By offering a unique blend of safety, insight, and practical tools, therapy empowers people to transform their pain into wisdom, ultimately allowing them to not just cope with life, but to truly thrive within it.
