PEOPLE. Can’t live with them, can’t live without them? It’s painful to watch others apparently having an easy time connecting. It’s lonely. Relationships may have always been complicated or disappointing for you and it’s hard to fully trust them. Somewhere in you there’s a real yearning for deep, authentic connection. That might be embarrassing to admit. You can almost sense in your bones that it should be possible… But you don’t know how.
You may have tried many tools and coping skills, but those only got you so far. Well, that's because ultimately life is not here to be COPED with. It's for you to confidently inhabit your full authentic self. And that first takes having new, powerful emotional experiences, and making new meanings, while being held in safe relationship. That's what I'm about.
How would you like to grow beyond your own blend of self-criticism, living in fear, people-pleasing, avoidance, social anxiety, being checked out? In working with me, you can develop a healthy sense of self-compassion, empowerment to be yourself in relationship, and belonging in the world. It’s possible to be so much more real and alive. Send me a message.
