About

You may have learned how to be the steady one, the responsible one, the one who holds things together. Beneath that steadiness, there may be grief without a clear name, emotions that feel intense or confusing, or a sense of living between worlds, cultures, or family roles. You might appear capable and high-functioning, while internally feeling stretched thin, vigilant, or unsure where you truly belong. Many people I work with are self-reliant and composed, even when it comes at a quiet cost.
