Therapy for women who care deeply & overthink … everything

Who absorb everyone else’s feelings like a human emotional sponge and feel it in their body as tension, exhaustion, and never-ending what-ifs.

Sound like your flavor of late night anxiety?

  • Anxiety That Shows Up in Your Body

    The tight chest, lump in your throat, and constant knot in your stomach.

    Even when nothing “big” is happening, your nervous system feels like it’s on high alert.

  • That Nagging “Did I Say the Wrong Thing?” Feeling

    You walk away from a conversation and immediately start the replay.

    Did your tone sound weird? Did they pause too long before answering? Maybe they’re mad… Maybe you overshared…

  • Being Sensitive in a World That Feels Like Too Much

    You notice eeeverything: the shift in someone’s expression, the tone of a text, the energy in a room.

    You care deeply, which is part of what makes you you, but it can also leave you feeling overstimulated, emotionally raw, and constantly “on.”

How bout moving towards a quieter mind?

  • Carrying less of everyone else's feelings

    You can care without becoming everyone’s emotional sponge.

  • Feeling less hijacked by anxiety

    Even the 3 am kind with the racing thoughts and tight chest

  • Showing up with more confidence

    Without replaying every convo for days (or years) afterwards.

you deserve a solid gameplan

I’ll give you practical tools, gentle insights and a cozy place to untangle your anxious thoughts.

So you can stop absorbing everyone else’s feelings, spiral less over what people think, and finally feel comfier in your own skin.

Ellie Miller, LCSW-C

I help sensitive, anxious women who feel like the therapist in every room.

Over the past decade, I’ve studied, practiced, and taught mindfulness based tools for anxiety, emotional regulation and resilience-practical strategies that actually help when your thoughts won’t shut up and your chest feels like a fist.

I do this work bc I know how exhausting it is to feel and overthink everything.

Therapy with me is gently paced and filled with practical tools that you can actually use when things feel overwhelming.
