Therapy for Women in Midlife

Schedule a free consultation

Somewhere between ‘doing it all’ and ‘holding it together’… you lost yourself a bit. Let’s fix that.

Midlife hits differently.


It’s not a crisis — it’s more like a “Wait… how did I get here?” moment.


You look around at the life you built — the career, the kids, the routines, the responsibilities — and realize somewhere along the way you slipped to the bottom of your own priority list.

You’re tired. You’re overstretched.
And if you’re being really honest? You miss yourself.

Therapy gives you a place to slow down, get real, and figure out what you actually want — not what you’ve been told you should want.
It’s about reconnecting with yourself, your voice, and your life… in a way that feels
authentically you.

Hi, I’m Jaclyn.

I help women in midlife move from overwhelm and self-doubt to clarity, balance, and self-trust.
You’ve been powering through for years — doing all the things, meeting all the expectations, and somehow always putting yourself last.

Therapy with me is where you finally get to say, “Okay… but what about me?” and actually mean it.
No guilt. No perfect answers. Just real conversations that help you feel more grounded, more intentional, and more like the person you’ve been missing.

Real change doesn’t come from doing more — it starts with giving yourself permission to pause.

A Space Where You Can Finally Exhale

Therapy with me isn’t about quick fixes or pretending everything’s fine.
It’s about creating a space where you can show up exactly as you are — messy thoughts, big feelings, and all.

We’ll slow things down, get curious about what’s happening beneath the surface, and help you build new habits of self-trust and compassion.

You don’t have to have the perfect words or a five-step plan.
You just have to show up — and we’ll take it from there, one conversation at a time.

Ready to feel like yourself again? It starts here.
