My approach to anxiety, burnout and overwhelming states attends to the deeper layers of experience that give rise to those symptoms — the search for meaning, the exploration of identity, and the unprocessed traces of trauma. We will explore personal narratives, recurrent relational patterns and symbolic material that point to how you have come to understand yourself and your place in the world. 

This exploration can reveal how a loss of meaning, a fractured sense of self or longstanding emotional wounds may contribute to persistent anxiety or chronic exhaustion. 

In practice, depth work uses the therapeutic relationship, reflective dialogue, attention to dreams and imagery, and bodily awareness to uncover unconscious dynamics that drive your overwhelm. 

By bringing implicit beliefs and defensive habits into conscious awareness, you can begin to understand your life story and make different choices about boundaries, pace and self-care. 

Depth psychotherapy offers containment and attunement, supporting the gradual integration of previously disowned or lost parts of the self, which often reduces the intensity and frequency of anxious or burnout-related states.
