Some things are too heavy to carry alone. This is a place to put some of it down.
Online therapy for women navigating anxiety, sensitivity, and lives that don't follow the expected script.
You might be noticing:
A life controlled by anxiety
Making yourself smaller but also frustrated when you don’t feel truly seen
Feeling overwhelmed, even when you're "handling it"
Overthinking is your default setting
Feeling disconnected from your own preferences, desires, and goals
People telling you that you're "too sensitive"
Second-guessing yourself or wondering if you're doing it wrong
A nagging sense that your life doesn't quite fit, but unable to name why
Grieving something you thought your life would be
Feeling like you have to be "fine" when you're not
A desire for something more meaningful than just getting through the week
What’s often harder to name is this:
You feel so tired and disconnected from yourself that you don’t even know how to describe what’s not working. You're anxious, overwhelmed, and caught in your own head more than you'd like to be. You're tired of trying to manage how you come across to other people. Of making yourself easier, smaller, or more palatable so other people are comfortable. Of being so used to holding back what you want or need that you no longer know what you do want.
Maybe you're living a life that doesn't look like what you were taught to expect, whether by choice, by circumstance, or some complicated mix of both. Maybe chronic illness or grief rewrote the plan. Maybe you moved abroad, or chose a different kind of life from what was expected of you, or left a path that looked right on paper.
Or maybe nothing dramatic has happened at all, and you just have a persistent sense that you've drifted from yourself, and you can't quite find the way back.
From the outside it might look brave. From the inside it can feel like a lot to carry alone.
Therapy with me is a place to slow down, pay attention, and find your way back to yourself, and to what actually matters to you.

“Off-Script" is a free book and film list for women navigating lives that went a different direction, curated by a therapist who has been there.
I work with people navigating this in different ways, whether that shows up as:
Living a life that feels off-script and nontraditional
Chronic or serious illness
Navigating life as an empath or a highly sensitive person
Building a life abroad as an expat and feeling untethered or in-between
Anxiety that has overtaken your life
Working through big life transitions
Healthcare work and burnout, and everything it costs you
Grief and loss

Hi, I’m Caitlin…
I'm American therapist based in Paris, licensed in Pennsylvania, Washington DC, Vermont, and New Jersey. Originally from Philly (Go Birds!), I’ve called Paris home for 4 years.
In my sessions, we follow curiosity. We pay attention to your body, your patterns, your relationships, and what you actually want, even when that's hard to name. Using evidence-based and trauma-informed practices, I guide sessions using a personalized approach incorporating existential and relational therapies, psychodynamic theory, and somatic techniques.
