You’re doing your best to hold it all together, but inside, you’re exhausted.

Whether you’re a high-achiever, a helping professional, or simply tired of holding it all together, our team at Positive Moods Therapy is here to help you breathe again, reconnect, and find balance that actually lasts.

The Humans Behind The Therapy

Specializing in…

  • Balancing career success with personal wellbeing doesn’t have to feel impossible.

    As a professional, you may look like you have it all together but inside, you might be battling burnout, stress, perfectionism, or the pressure to constantly perform. Many of my clients are high-achieving professionals who find themselves overwhelmed, struggling to set boundaries, or feeling like their career has come at the cost of their personal life.

    Therapy for professionals can help you:

    • Manage stress, anxiety, and workplace burnout

    • Navigate career transitions and leadership challenges

    • Set boundaries without guilt

    • Overcome people-pleasing and perfectionism

    • Build confidence in both personal and professional spaces

      Learn More

  • Stop putting everyone else first and start reclaiming your voice.

    If you constantly say “yes” even when you want to say “no,” struggle to set boundaries, or feel guilty for expressing your needs, you may be stuck in a cycle of people-pleasing. This pattern can leave you feeling exhausted, resentful, and disconnected from your true self—both at work and in your personal relationships.

    People-pleasing therapy can help you:

    • Identify the root causes of people-pleasing behaviors

    • Build confidence in asserting your needs without guilt

    • Set healthy boundaries in relationships and at work

    • Reduce stress, anxiety, and fear of disappointing others

    • Develop stronger, more balanced connections with others

  • Heal past trauma and reclaim your life with EMDR therapy.

    If you’ve experienced trauma, anxiety, or distressing memories that continue to affect your daily life, EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) therapy can help you process these experiences safely and effectively. EMDR is a research-backed approach that helps reduce the emotional charge of painful memories, allowing you to move forward with clarity and confidence.

    For clients seeking faster results, EMDR intensives provide a focused, structured approach over several days, allowing deeper processing in a shorter period of time. This format is ideal for high-achieving women and professionals who want rapid progress while maintaining a flexible schedule.

    EMDR therapy and intensives can help you:

    • Process and resolve traumatic memories

    • Reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, and PTSD

    • Break cycles of avoidance and emotional overwhelm

    • Develop healthier coping strategies

    • Reconnect with your life, relationships, and sense of self

  • Navigating the immigration process can be stressful and complex, especially when legal requirements include mental health documentation. We provide professional immigration evaluations to support applications for asylum, T-Visas, U-Visas, and other immigration benefits. Our evaluations are thorough, objective, and designed to meet legal and USCIS standards.
