Although you’re surrounded by familiar faces, there’s an underlying feeling of loneliness and isolation that seems to follow you wherever you go. You long for deeper connection in your relationships, but you just can’t seem to find the right people or circles where you feel at ease. As someone who has many sides to their self, it constantly feels like you have to sacrifice parts of your identity to fit in. You’re finding it harder to enjoy the activities you once did and you’re overcome with exhaustion or restlessness as you try to get through your day. No matter how hard you try, it feels like there’s something missing.
I’m here to help you find those missing pieces. As we sit together, we’ll explore your experiences in depth and identify patterns that no longer serve you. We’ll work on shifting your responses to difficult situations so you can build a better connection to self, while also strengthening your connection to others.
My goal is to create space for you to honour who you are, where you come from and what you’ve been through. With the right support, you can develop a greater sense of calm so you can make choices that bring more joy and pride into your daily life, including relationships. Book a free 15-minute consult on my website, or email me directly for any questions.
