I offer specialized therapy focused on targeted healing, lasting change, and purposeful growth. If you are vulnerable to overachieving/functioning, burnout, perfectionism, imposter syndrome, people pleasing, pursuing, painful relationship patterns, limiting beliefs, and hustling for self-worth, I can be of service. I am trained to go deep and get down to the origins of your struggles, often found in earlier relationship experiences. From there, I serve as a skilled guide through the process of organization, healing, transformation, and integration. You deserve space for your needs, to refill your resources, and to find contentment.
Our work can highlight your strengths, resilience, skills, and drive so you can fully harness their power. It can also unearth the corresponding wounds, vulnerabilities, adaptations, protections, patterns, limiting beliefs, stuck points, unmet needs, and shadow drivers that underpin your pain. Together, we can heal and release anything that no longer serves.
I want to reassure you that you won’t lose your ‘edge’, energy, or drive if you risk going deeper, rather, you can experience greater internal clarity, satisfaction, and resources from which to live your best life. I specialize in supporting clients to explore, expand, and integrate all the new possibilities available to them for living, loving, and leading.

This process group can help you to release self-doubt and build trust in yourself, feel courageous to share and ask for what you need, discover yourself without needing to compare, reclaim your time and energy, set boundaries, and step into your potential.

General Information about Group Therapy at CCHC

Hosted by
Elayne Smith

Group therapy is an opportunity to understand the relationships we have with ourselves and others. It offers space to connect authentically and deepen your capacity for vulnerability, intimacy, and connection. Many of us have been hurt in relationships, requiring us to create protections and threat-mitigation strategies. Group is a great way to discover and work through these protections. Learn about your relationship patterns – your ability to trust, be vulnerable, set boundaries, identify your needs, make space to be seen and heard, express emotions, be aware of your protections, be accessible and responsive to others, and receive compassion and validation.
