You are a high achiever who does what it takes to get ahead. You've been described as industrious, passionate, serious, and intense. You are the person your friends and family come to with their problems as you appear to have it all together. You are holding so much for everyone else, but you feel so alone. Below this confident exterior, anxiety brews. You are a deeply feeling person and yet sometimes feel unseen. Your inner critic can be loud and it often tells you that you're not enough. I am here to help you discover why you feel this way, to hold space, and to explore the inner workings of your multi-layered self.
With 18 years of working with high level performers, I specialize in relational trauma, creative professionals, high level academics, folks with CPTSD, and those who relate to the term "high masking". I incorporate relational and somatic work, with Internal Family Systems, through a trauma-informed, gender- and neuro-affirming lens, and a sense of humour.
If any part of you resonates with my profile, and if you're ready to explore into what's happening inside yourself, please email me to schedule a free, 20-minute phone consultation. Don't hesitate to arrive with any questions, comments or concerns you may have. Sessions are available both in-person on Locke Street or online.
