From the outside, it seems like you have it all together.
Perhaps the people around you would say you’re kind, humble, and even confident. But on the inside you feel lost and can’t stop focusing on your flaws or failures. Maybe you wish you could be content with who you are just for one minute, versus having feelings of self-doubt creep into your mind at such annoying rates of frequency.
My clients feel like you. Despite trying their best and being supportive of those they love most, they feel like they’re not enough. They often describe themselves as people who can see the best in others, but for some reason, they struggle to show themselves that same level of kindness.
When they meet with me for the first time, they’re hesitant and unsure, but they fight through the discomfort because they know that what’s going on within them can’t be solved by another self-help article or trendy habit. They’re tired of being driven by fear, the possibility of rejection, or the constantly-looming expectations of others. They’re done with hiding from themselves and those around them, pretending everything is fine.
Like my clients, you deserve the chance for someone to get to know you—the real you.
During our time together we’ll sort through the stories you’ve told yourself about who you are and who you can’t be. You will come out on the other side understanding that you are not your failures but a multifaceted human being with your own set of unique experiences and strengths. I will help you understand that you are enough, and together we’ll find tools that remind you of that fact every day.
how I can help
Let’s talk
The counseling experience has never been more accessible with 24/7 online scheduling, an online client portal, and video sessions that are confidential and secure. Please take a look around my website and if it resonates with you, schedule a 20-minute, no obligation phone consultation.
I’m all about transparency and helping you figure out if I’m the right fit for you. I’ve answered some of the common questions I receive when someone is thinking about scheduling a phone consult with me.
+ What is a phone consult?
A phone consultation is a short, informal conversation where we’ll get to know each other. Most importantly, it’s an opportunity for you to see if I’m a good fit for you. As you share about yourself, I’ll also listen to ensure I can help you with your concerns. The phone consult is just a conversation and no counseling will take place.
+ What should I expect?
I’ll give you a ring at the date and time you selected for your consultation. During our talk, I can answer any questions you have, see what you need, and tell you more about what people experience when they have me as their counselor. We’ll discuss structure of online counseling sessions, cost, and scheduling. You’ll be able to gauge if you think we’re a good fit and see if you’re ready to take the next step.
+ How can I prepare?
I want you to feel empowered to ask me any questions you have. Before our conversation, think about what you need or want to know. Anything and everything is on the table: questions about myself, my process, fees, cancellation policy, etc. It may feel awkward asking me about who I am and how I work, but counseling is different than other types of healthcare. That being said, it is completely normal to feel nervous about this conversation.
