Meet Jo
If you’ve found yourself here, chances are you’ve been holding a lot. Maybe you’ve been the responsible one in your relationship, carrying the emotional weight, keeping the peace, trying to keep everyone else happy. And still, it feels like it’s not enough. You are exhausted. And somewhere deep down, you’ve started wondering if it is you, are you really the problem?
You might be asking yourself, Why doesn’t this feel good? Why don’t they love me the way I love them? What else do I need to fix about myself? So you try harder. You twist yourself into versions of who you think you should be, calmer, quieter, happier, smaller. And yet nothing changes. If you had a look back in time, you wonder where you went and where did you lose yourself a long the way.
I really get it. I’ve been there and spent time relationships that I have not been able to make work. I found every little thing about myself that I thought needed to change. I really believed that if I could just be more, do more, say less, be happy, then my life was going to get better. It feels that when I look back on my past, it is like Groundhog Day. I was in the same relationships or had the same connections.
It was just that the faces changed.
I blamed myself for years always looked to myself as the problem first and that left me with a voice in my head that was mean and if I am really honest, she was bitchy and cruel. It’s exhausting and heartbreaking to live like this.
My passion is in helping women just like you. To come back home to the things that really matter to you in a relationship. To help you say the things that are important to you and to stop shapeshifting to try and accommodate somebody else’s needs. I want you to know that you are lovable, you are acceptable, you are worthy. You are deserving, as you are. And you don’t need to change for anybody. You don’t need to dim your light.
You don’t need to keep things bottled up inside to save the peace. You need to be in a relationship with somebody who loves you just for you. All of you, the sparkly bits and the bits that haven’t yet been polished.
Together, we work on reconnecting you with the parts of you you’ve been hiding, the opinions you’ve silenced, the emotions you’ve swallowed, the needs you’ve buried. We bring them into the light, only when you are ready. And when you’re ready, you’ll know how to ask for what you want… without fear of being too much, without fear that it will cost you love.
You are not too much and you never were.
This work isn’t about fixing you. It’s about making space for your wholeness. It’s about learning how to show up in your relationships without carrying the weight of everyone else’s emotions.
It’s about remembering that you get to have needs, desires, boundaries, and they don’t make you difficult. They make you human.
I’m so glad you’re here and I am looking forward to supporting you.

Meet Remi Grace
This gorgeous little pup has been coming into the therapy room since she was 8 weeks old, and she has a gift for knowing exactly what you need. She might snuggle up beside you when you’re processing something difficult, sleep peacefully nearby during a hypnotherapy session, or simply offer her quiet, non-judgmental presence when words feel too hard. She also loves to play and say help, so you will feel very welcomed by her.
There’s something healing about having a warm, soft presence in the room. Remi Grace has no expectations, no agenda, just pure acceptance. She’s witnessed countless tears, breakthroughs, and moments of courage, and she holds space for all of it.
If you’d like her company during our sessions, she’ll be there. If you prefer just the two of us, that’s perfectly fine too. Like everything else in this space, it’s entirely your choice.
Many clients find that having Remi Grace nearby helps them feel a little safer, a little more grounded. Sometimes, when it’s hard to trust humans, it’s easier to start with trusting a gentle soul who asks for nothing but offers everything.
