Many of the people I work with are thoughtful, self-aware individuals who feel stuck in patterns they don’t fully understand or can’t seem to change. They may struggle with a harsh inner critic, anxiety, burnout, perfectionism, or feeling overwhelmed. Some feel like different parts of them want different things, for example one part wants change while another part feels scared, stuck, or unsure. Others come because, from the outside, their life looks fine but internally they feel lost, disconnected, or unsure what direction their life should take.
