Why I Do This Work

I founded The Boundary Specialist to support those who give so much of themselves—therapists, coaches, health professionals, and high-achieving women—so they can keep showing up for others without losing themselves in the process.

Through personal experience, I’ve learned the cost of ignoring boundaries: burnout, disillusionment, financial stress, and emotional exhaustion. I’ve rebuilt my private practice more than once and had to redefine what success means for me. Now, I use everything I’ve learned to help you avoid those same pitfalls and build something sustainable, profitable, and fulfilling.

“I support you so you can keep supporting others.”

Supporting Neurodivergent Professionals

As awareness of neurodiversity grows, I’ve seen more women with ADHD and Autism seeking aligned, empowering support. My current MSc research focuses on how professionals can better understand and serve neurodivergent clients—and how neurodivergent entrepreneurs can thrive without masking or burning out.

I’ve Got Your Back

You don’t have to do this alone. If you’re the one holding space for others, leading teams, running a business, or carrying the emotional load—it’s time you were supported, too.
