Introduction

Everything feels hard right now. You’re exhausted and anxious. It’s hard to express that you need help, support, or patience from those around you, especially since you are usually the one who helps everyone else normally. You don't want to burden or overload anyone else with your stuff when they already have so much on their own plates. You'd like to feel confident, capable of handling the stress peacefully, and know in-the-moment that everything is okay without needing to lean on others. Becoming the person you want to be can be difficult and may feel unsafe as well. It may feel, in fact, impossible to speak your truth and reveal your truest self to the world because, well, they might not accept you...or maybe you already know that they will reject you, in fact. You may not be sure how to find the courage to live authentically. I can help you find your starting point, calm your fears, and tackle those conversations, because I've been there. I've walked through the fears and challenged the risk in order to discover the rewards of true self-expression. You can too. Call to schedule a free 20 minute consult. *Emails/voicemails are answered within 1-3 business days (office hours vary).
