Do you often feel misunderstood? Have you been told to toughen up because you are "too sensitive"? Do you long to feel closer to others but feel overwhelmed by the task? Having the capacity for depth and complexity can be difficult to navigate in our competitive, linear-oriented, results-driven culture. Knowing and accepting yourself for simply "you" (not who others think you should be) is an important practice to cultivate and will help release toxic stress and shame, allowing you to connect more deeply with yourself and others.
Often individuals with emotional intensity and depth struggle with their own sense of grounding or sense of self due to traumatic histories. Assertiveness can feel like the "enemy" but when learned and practiced is the key to long-lasting healing and improved self-esteem.
The presence I bring into sessions comes from personal experience with extreme organized abuse, traumatic memory/amnesia and spending 10+ years on the client side prior to becoming licensed. I believe that a collaborative, non-hierarchical approach to therapy is the most critical element in healing within the therapeutic relationship.
