You Don’t Have to Stay Stuck. Healing Begins Here.

Therapy for High-Achieving Adults and Couples Who Feel Overwhelmed, Disconnected, and Tired of Coping

Based in Boynton Beach and Available Online Throughout Florida

You’ve been holding it together for too long.

Each morning, you wake up already bracing yourself for the day ahead.

You push through, mask the pain, and keep showing up – but inside, something feels off.

It’s awful to have to desperately keep it together while feeling like you’re falling apart inside.

Your thoughts race constantly.

Old conversations play on an infinite loop in your head.

You can’t help but endlessly overanalyze everything you said or did.

Overwhelming self-doubt and second-guessing paralyze you with indecision.

Painful memories creep into every part of your life.

Irritability and constant arguments create distance in your relationships that make you feel all alone.

Every muscle is tense and knotted, and it feels like your body is breaking down.

There’s a dark cloud that casts a shadow over even your happiest moments.

You try to find some solution.

You push your feelings down, ignore them, and try to convince yourself, “It’s not that bad.”

When that doesn’t work, you turn to unhealthy distractions that end up leaving you feeling worse.

No matter how hard you try to fix things, the pain keeps showing up, always louder than before.

It feels hopeless

You know that unless you try something new, things will only keep getting worse.

More sleepless nights and more exhaustion as stress and tension wear you down.

More miscommunication, disconnection, and loneliness. You wonder if change is even possible.

There is another way.

Imagine waking up feeling calm, present, and connected to your body.

Walking into a room without fear of conflict and communicating without constant second-guessing.

It’s possible to feel seen, safe, and in control. To feel like yourself again. This isn’t a fantasy.

This Is the Moment Everything Can Change

It’s time to fully trust your emotions, your choices, your relationships, and yourself.

To stop existing on autopilot and start actually engaging with the world.

You aren’t meant to just “get through” life – you’re meant to thrive in it. And I can help.

Hi, I’m Makahala.

I help you reconnect to yourself and heal the nervous system patterns that keep you stuck. Clients describe our work together as deep, relieving, and life-changing.

I help high-achieving adults and couples break free from trauma patterns, emotional overwhelm, and chronic disconnection.

I know how it feels to carry invisible burdens and how much energy it takes to pretend you’re okay.

That’s why therapy with me isn’t about just talking; it’s about deep, transformational change.

In our sessions, we’ll go beneath the surface to where trauma, anxiety, and emotional pain live in your nervous system, in your relational patterns, and in your body.

Using a unique blend of trauma-informed modalities, including Somatic Experiencing (SE), EMDR Therapy, and Internal Family Systems (IFS), we’ll tailor your healing journey to your unique needs.

You deserve to feel safe, understood, and challenged. Call me now for your free consultation.
