You are not broken.

You are responding to an unbearable moment in history.

The exhaustion, grief, rage, numbness, confusion
is not a personal failure or a mindset problem.

It is what happens when sensitive, attuned nervous systems (like yours and mine) are asked to survive collapse, injustice, urgency, and relentless demand.

Especially for those who are competent, responsible, relied upon. The ones who keep things moving even when they are unraveling inside.

This is a place where we tell the truth about that together,
and where you don’t have to hold it alone.

Not to feel better.
But to become more rooted, resourced, and alive inside what is real.

The Moment We’re In

Right now, we are living inside overlapping crises:
cultural, political, relational, ecological
and most spaces are still asking people to
cope quietly, optimize harder, or “stay positive.”

Your body knows better.

This work trusts the body as a source of truth. Not just regulation, but guidance.

Burnout, anxiety, shutdown, despair, chronic over-functioning, and grief are not malfunctions. They are intelligent responses to prolonged pressure and unresolved rupture.

Over-functioning once kept careers, families, and systems afloat, until it became unsustainable.

This work is for those who are done pretending otherwise, and ready to set the burden down.

What I Offer

I offer slow, relational, nervous-system-centered work for people who are tired of surface solutions and ready to meet themselves honestly, without being rushed, fixed, or spiritualized out of their pain.

Much of my work is with people who are competent, driven, and used to being the one others rely on, and who are ready to stop carrying everything alone.

This work is:

  • Grounded in clinical wisdom and somatic truth

  • Explicitly aware of systems, power, and injustice

  • Devotional to reality, not performance

  • Designed for people standing at a threshold

This is work rooted in reverence for lived experience, inner knowing, and the wisdom that emerges when we stop forcing answers.

You don’t need more tools.
You need context, capacity, and companionship.

Work 1:1

mentorship | therapy

For those needing sustained, relational support,

especially people who are high-capacity, high-responsibility, and finding that their usual ways of coping no longer work.

Work with me privately

You don’t need to transcend this moment.
You need a place to stand inside it without losing yourself.

That’s what this work is for.

Many people are reaching for support right now not because something is “wrong” with them, but because the conditions we are living inside are destabilizing at every level.

Ongoing injustice, political violence, economic pressure, and collective grief don’t stay abstract.
They live in the nervous system.

If your capacity feels thinner, your emotions sharper, or your usual ways of coping no longer work, that is not a personal failure. It is a human response to abnormal conditions.

  • Working with Aleen was transformative. In the intensive time we worked together I found clarity that I had been seeking independently for over 2 years. She saw into me and called me forth, my truth, my dreams, me. If I had known that I could make such progress in 1 month I would have signed up to see her years ago.
