Feeling hyperaware of your symptoms, experiences and self in general can be exhausting and often generate feelings of shame, guilt and frustration. You may feel stuck on where to go next once you've learned so much about yourself. Taking a break from your thoughts and dropping into your body can be both challenging and rewarding. You deserve a relationship with yourself that is healing, validating and connected.
I enjoy working with clients who share they are too aware of themselves and feel "stuck in their head." I utilize a somatic and mindful approach to build upon the knowledge you possess of yourself to deepen your relationship with your physical experiences and not just your thoughts. I support clients in healing their personal relationship with themselves.
If you aren't sure where to turn, that is understandable. Let's figure this out together! I offer 15 minute phone consultations at no cost and we can discuss your needs and see if I am a good fit for you. I look forward to hearing from you and hope to help guide on your journey of connection and healing.
