"Are you "powering through" your day only to feel completely exhausted and disconnected when it’s over?
Burnout starts with exhaustion, but it rarely stops there. Left unchecked, it can lead to a deep sense of isolation, leaving you feeling like no one truly understands the weight you’re carrying. This often spirals into depression, anxiety and substance abuse, making it even harder to manage the demands of ADHD or the habits—like substance use—that we sometimes use to cope.
Before becoming a therapist, I practiced family law for 20 years. My experience taught me how to ask the hard questions in a way that is respectful and caring. I know from experience that professionals often feel they have to keep up a "mask" of competency, even when they are struggling internally. In our work together, we drop the mask and embrace reality.
If we can improve self-honesty and communication, we can develop the insight needed to stop the cycle of isolation and support positive and lasting change.
Welcome, I'm Hannah! I am a licensed therapist based in Florida. I deeply enjoy working with clients of various identities and cultural backgrounds. Together, we can navigate things like identity development, relationships, emotional regulation, and all of the unique parts of yourself. I strive to help you find useful tools that promote empowerment and self-understanding. As your therapist, I welcome you as are and I am eager to support you in your wellness journey. If you are seeking therapy that prioritizes authenticity, curiosity, and new insights, then we may be a great fit.
