As a psychotherapist, I know that one size never fits all when it comes to healing.
While my work focuses on helping high-achieving women break free from imposter syndrome, people-pleasing, and unresolved trauma, there are times when a different type of support — or a different voice — is what’s needed most.
Whether you’re looking for support in another area (like couples work, coaching, or addictions) or you live in a state or country where I’m not licensed to practice, I want you to have access to skilled, compassionate professionals you can trust.
Below, you’ll find a thoughtfully curated list of recommended mental health and wellness professionals—therapists, coaches, and holistic providers I know personally or professionally. These are colleagues I trust to bring care, clarity, and integrity to the people they serve.
I receive no compensation for these recommendations — they are simply colleagues I believe in.
