Who I work with
Does This Sound Like You?
You say yes before you've even checked your calendar.
You're exhausted, but your brain won't turn off at night.
You feel guilty resting when there's still something to do.
You've thought about therapy but aren't sure your problems are “big enough.”
If this sounds familiar, you're in the right place. Let me show you how I can help.
My story
Why I Started Fernwell
I was the reliable one for a long time. In grad school I worked two jobs, said yes to everyone and told myself I was fine. I wasn't. I was anxious, tired and snapping at the people I loved.
My own therapist taught me something simple: you can care about people and still have limits. Learning that changed my life, and it's a big part of why I do this work.
After six years at a busy community agency, I wanted to give each client more time and a calmer space. So I opened Fernwell: one cozy office, evening telehealth for busy moms, and therapy that feels like a real conversation.
Now I get to give you what I needed back then: a place to set everything down, practical tools, and someone in your corner.

What We'll Work On Together
