Therapy for Driven, Deep-Feeling Adults Tired of Holding It All Together Alone
For adults navigating anxiety, burnout, trauma, relationship patterns, neurodivergence, and the pressure to keep going. Using IFS, EMDR, and somatic approaches, I help you move beyond insight into real, lasting change.
IFS THERAPY | EMDR INTENSIVES | IN MURRIETA & ONLINE ACROSS CALIFORNIA
You Understand the Patterns. You’re Still Stuck in Them.
You know why you do what you do. You’ve gained insight. You’ve talked about it. You’ve tried to change.
But when life gets stressful, the same things keep showing up:
Perfectionism that won’t let you rest
Caretaking that’s hard to stop
Anger that comes out sideways, or gets buried completely
Overwhelm that doesn’t settle
Relationship patterns you can see clearly, but still repeat
That gap between understanding and actually changing is where deeper therapy begins.
What’s the Right Support for Me?
Individual Therapy: Ongoing support for adults who want consistent space to work through anxiety, burnout, trauma, relationship patterns, neurodivergence, perfectionism, and life transitions.
EMDR Intensive: Focused therapy for clients who want deeper work in a shorter period of time, without losing momentum between appointments.
I want you to know:
You Don’t Need to Fix Yourself. You Need to Free Yourself.
From old habits that once helped you.
From the pressure to hold everything together.
From the belief that you have to earn rest, love, or belonging.
WHAT I HELP WITH:
STRESS & BURNOUT
You’re exhausted from being the responsible one: at work, at home, in your relationships, sometimes everywhere. You may have learned early to be the fixer, the helper, or the one who keeps things together. Therapy can help you stop carrying everyone else’s emotions and start tending to your own.
COMPLEX TRAUMA
Sometimes trauma is not one obvious event. Sometimes it is the accumulation of experiences that taught you to be perfect, invisible, self-sufficient, or constantly on alert. I help adults heal the patterns shaped by conditional love, emotional neglect, parentification, and family chaos.
NEURODIVERGENT ADULTS
As someone with ADHD, I understand neurodivergence from the inside. I work with adults navigating ADHD, autism, and complex neurodivergent experiences, often alongside trauma, perfectionism, or burnout. Together, we’ll sort out what needs accommodation, what needs compassion, and what protective patterns may be ready to heal, without pathologizing who you are.
PERFECTIONISM & SHAME
You’ve spent years trying to be good enough: the high achiever, the reliable one, the person who rarely lets anyone see the mess. But the pressure is exhausting, and nothing feels like enough for long. Therapy can help you loosen the shame underneath perfectionism and build a steadier sense of worth.
How I Work
-
EMDR helps your brain and nervous system reprocess experiences, beliefs, and emotional patterns that still feel unresolved. This can be especially helpful when insight alone has not changed the way your body reacts, the way old memories feel, or the way certain triggers keep showing up in your life.
-
IFS helps us understand the different parts of you that may feel stuck, conflicted, protective, overwhelmed, or exhausted. Instead of fighting the inner critic, the overachiever, the people-pleaser, or the part that shuts down, we get curious about what those parts are trying to protect. This work helps create more self-trust, compassion, and internal steadiness.
-
Somatic therapy brings the body and nervous system into the work. Together, we pay attention to signals like tension, shutdown, urgency, numbness, or overwhelm so healing is not only something you understand intellectually. This can help you build more capacity, regulation, and safety from the inside out.
HI, I’M TANA
I help you move beyond insight into real, lasting change.
Many of the people I work with already have insight. They’ve talked about it. They understand why they feel the way they do. What's been missing is a way to work with what's actually driving those patterns.
I specialize in working with driven, deep-feeling adults who already have insight but still feel stuck in the same patterns. My work integrates IFS, EMDR, and somatic therapy with a trauma-informed, neurodivergent-affirming lens.
I bring specialized training and lived understanding, but I don’t believe therapy should feel rigid or one-size-fits-all. We’ll work with your goals, your nervous system, and your pace.
Let’s Make This Simple
Because getting support shouldn’t feel overwhelming. Here’s how to take the first step—easily and at your own pace.
One: Reach Out
Schedule a free 15-minute consultation.
Two: Choose
We’ll decide whether individual therapy or an EMDR intensive makes sense.
Three: Begin
We’ll use the approaches that fit your needs, whether that means IFS, EMDR, somatic therapy, practical support, or a blend.
Interested in an InTEnsive FORMAT?
EMDR Intensives offer a focused therapy format for those who want deeper work in a shorter period of time.
Instead of spreading the work across months of weekly sessions, we set aside dedicated time to work more fully on what you want to address. This can be especially helpful if you’ve done therapy before and still feel stuck, or if you want a more focused way to approach healing without losing momentum between appointments.
