If you feel confused by your reactions in relationships, I can help. You may worry you’re “too clingy,” feel emotionally preoccupied, or change yourself to avoid losing connection. Or you may pull away when things get close, get the sudden “ick,” feel bored or ambivalent, or question the relationship when your partner shows emotion. Many clients I work with are thoughtful, self-aware adults who understand their patterns but still feel caught in them. I also work with adults impacted by trauma, including experiences that continue to show up as anxiety, emotional overwhelm, hypervigilance, or reactions that feel bigger than the moment. If your nervous system feels stuck in old survival responses, therapy can help you make sense of these patterns and begin relating to yourself and others in a steadier, more secure way.
