Hi there, I'm Theresa!

Feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure what’s next? I help highly sensitive people find clarity, connection, and a way forward that feels right for them. You might be someone who overthinks, questions yourself often, or feels like you’re in a transition—no longer who you were, but not quite sure who you’re becoming.

My focus

In our work, we slow things down and listen more closely—to your body, your emotions, and your intuition. Together, we move from self-doubt toward trust, and toward a way of living that feels more aligned, creative, and easeful.

My approach

My approach is relational and body-aware. We notice what your nervous system is telling you — patterns, sensations, and emotions — so change can happen gently, without pressure or pushing. Therapy here isn’t about “fixing” you. It’s about remembering what’s already true. If any of this feels familiar, I’d be honored to meet you where you are.
