When Your Brain Feels Like a Battle, Everything Gets Harder

You didn’t choose this overwhelm, but it shows up every day. Maybe you’re exhausted from years of masking, powering through, and wondering why everything feels harder for you than it does for everyone else. Maybe your mind doesn’t feel like a safe place anymore. And you’re grieving the version of you that felt focused, light, or in control—even if she only existed in flashes.

Mental Health Affects More Than Just The Surface

If you’re like many of my clients, you may also be dealing with:

  • Feeling overwhelmed by even “simple” tasks like laundry, emails, or remembering appointments

  • Shame or guilt for being “scatterbrained,” “messy,” or “too emotional”

  • Relationship tension because your needs feel misunderstood or minimized

  • Constant anxiety from trying to stay organized, productive, and "on top of things"

  • Exhaustion from masking and pretending you have it together when inside it feels chaotic

  • Mental burnout from running on overdrive for years just to keep up

You might start to believe you’re just “too much” or “not enough.”
But what you’re feeling isn’t failure—it’s the result of pushing through life without the support your brain really needs.

Why I Do This Work

I became a therapist because I understand how overwhelming and isolating life can feel when your brain doesn’t operate the way the world expects it to. In my Kansas City-based therapy practice, I work with women who have spent years blaming themselves for being too scattered, too emotional, or not productive enough—when in reality, they were doing their best with a brain that was never fully understood or supported.

My therapy approach is warm, grounded, and centered around compassion. Whether you’re in Kansas City or joining me through secure telehealth in Missouri or Kansas, you’ll find a safe space where your full experience is welcome. There’s no need to have it all together here—just come as you are.
