Introduction

Relationships can be tough—whether you're feeling unheard, struggling with trust, or questioning where you stand. Maybe you're also exploring your identity or sexuality and just need a space where you can be real without fear of judgment. On top of that, anxiety might be making everything feel even heavier. You want clarity, connection, and to feel more like yourself, but it’s hard to figure out how. I get it, and you don’t have to do it alone. Let’s work together to ease the anxiety and build the relationships you deserve.
