Are you overly attentive to other people's moods/feelings? Is it difficult to trust others? Do you often feel not good enough? Is it difficult to know what you want because you worry so much about what is expected of you? Do you experience guilt often? Do you resist asking for help or mentorship due to fear of being criticized or judged? Is it very difficult to ask for what you need in relationships? Feel the need to fix or manage your closest relationships? Carrying resentment, avoiding conflict and fear of rejection is heavy, isolating, disempowering and keeps you stuck in a vicious shame inducing cycle.

Leaving a toxic relationship is very, very difficult. Manipulation, gaslighting, coercion, shame, self-doubt and sense of a lost self can keep you trapped in the abuse. In these types of romantic and familial relationships, people are left feeling confused and selfish for having their own needs and convinced that they must make the other person happy at all costs. Even when people want to leave, the trauma bond ignites regions of the brain that cause you to feel out of control and "tied" to the relationship. Disengaging from this type of emotional tyranny is possible but requires a deep internal rewiring and grieving.

If you are feeling fearful of disappointing people, overcome by your emotions, or super aware of your surroundings, life can feel exhausting. Maybe you've been told "You're too sensitive", leaving you feeling judged. This can make you feel flawed, leaving you anxious and in constant fear. These are some of the difficulties Highly Sensitive People (HSP) experience. Life is full of rigid judgments, however, it’s in the gray space that we grow and explore. Society pressures us to conform, particularly when it comes to gender + sexuality. I am a dedicated advocate for LGBTQIA+ individuals who are exploring multiple aspects of identity.

Major life changes can leave you feeling stuck, confused, lost, alone, disappointed, or unsure what's next for you. Perhaps the excitement of a new relationship, new baby, new job, or new school, may not have met your hopes or expectations. Perhaps you would like to change something, but don't know what to do next. Anxiety in these situations is more common than you think.

Many of my clients come to me after experiencing constant judgement and shame from their world. This becomes internalized and they often feel stuck from negative self-talk, anxiety or low self-esteem. My clients are not looking for ways to improve a symptom, but are looking to get in touch with their strengths and utilize parts of themselves that were lost. My clients are looking for a calm, nurturing environment where they can explore these issues in a playful manner.
