You wake up with a pit in your stomach before anything has even happened yet.

The whole day is ahead of you, and everyone in it needs something from you. Somewhere at the very bottom of that to-do list is you. By the time you're in the work meeting, the self-doubt has caught up. By the evening, you're questioning whether you're a good enough partner, friend, daughter, or mother, and a resounding no seems to be all you can hear.

You've spent so long managing everyone’s moods and reading the room that you lost sight of who you are when you stop.

A woman with long dark hair, glasses, and a nose ring, smiling at the camera. She is wearing a dark green cardigan and a maroon top with lace detail.

When someone finally notices you aren’t okay, you default back to

“Oh, it’s okay. I’m fine.”

You'd rather keep it together than be somebody's burden. Falling apart stays strictly between you and your notes app.

Or maybe you have talked about it. You've read the trendy self-help books, saved the IG infographics, and watched the viral videos from TikTok therapists. And still you find yourself in the same patterns, the same pain. Healing is hard to do by yourself. It's meant to happen with somebody.

I'm Tyler. I work with women who are unpacking generational trauma while trying to raise the next one, and with women who are tired of surviving and want to know what else is possible.

We look at what you learned early about relationships, about yourself, about what you're allowed to expect from people. Trauma narrows all of that down. Therapy is how it widens back out.

Unruly Therapy exists because the kind of therapy I believe in doesn't really survive anywhere else.

I practice relational psychodynamic therapy.

Which means we go slowly, we go deep, and I need to know you well enough to notice what's happening between us while it's happening.

That takes time, consistency, and a therapist who isn't carrying forty other people.

Insurance companies want symptoms, timelines, and a discharge date. Community mental health agencies aren't built for this kind of work either.

So, I built somewhere it could actually happen.

A small caseload, long-term work, and nobody outside of our sessions deciding how long your healing gets to take.

I work with women who got very good at being whatever other people need. My job is to make it safe enough to stop performing. Safe enough to become unruly.

We talk through where you are right now

You share what's been going on and what you're hoping for. I share how I work. We both decide if this feels like the right fit.
