ABOUT ME

Hi, I’m Lindsey.

I’m deeply fascinated by the emotional and relational patterns that shape our lives.

The ways we overthink, shut down, self-abandon, spiral, fear intimacy, chase connection, or lose ourselves in relationships.

I don’t believe these patterns are random.

I believe they are protective responses our systems developed long ago in order to survive emotionally and relationally. And while those strategies may have once protected us, they often become the very things keeping us stuck in painful cycles of anxiety, disconnection, shame, overwhelm, and relational struggle.

My work helps people understand those patterns at the root so they can stop endlessly managing symptoms and start experiencing real, lasting transformation.

I work with people struggling with things like anxious attachment, emotional overwhelm, fear of abandonment, self-worth issues, overthinking, avoidance, grief, relational trauma, and repeating painful relationship dynamics despite years of insight and self-awareness.

Together, we connect the dots between your present-day struggles and the deeper emotional roots underneath them so your system no longer has to keep relying on the same protective strategies to survive.

This work is deeply relational, experiential, and transformative.

It’s not just about talking about your patterns intellectually. It’s about helping your body and nervous system finally process what they never got the chance to process before so you can experience more freedom, self-trust, emotional regulation, connection, and grounded relationships.

I hold a Master’s Degree in Integral Counseling Psychology and have training in trauma-informed relational work, somatic healing, psychodynamic theory, nervous system work, and subconscious transformation.

I live and work in the Bay Area, and offer my services virtually. In addition to my work here, I facilitate narrative therapy groups at San Quentin for incarcerated veterans who have PTSD, play clawhammer banjo, and spend a lot of time in the trees and hills of Oakland.

What makes me truly unique as a relationship and couples coach is my Master’s Degree in Integral Counseling Psychology and my clinical training in Marriage and Family Therapy (MFT).
