A lot of us came into our fields because we experienced stress in our upbringing. We found it easier to connect with others, to empathize with the world, and people sought support and refuge in us. We decided to go to school and make our gift into a living only to graduate and be caught in the vortex of a toxic/stressful work environment, feeling depleted, experiencing imposter syndrome, and/or feeling confused about whether you can continue doing this career. At some point, some of us have turned to substances or other forms of coping mechanisms that were not the healthiest but felt the most accessible to us at the time. We do our best to show up for our clients because we feel blessed that some of their experiences are not our stories.  We have moments of intense anxiety related to work demands, our clients, and if we can meet the needs of everyone. We hold beliefs of inadequacy, perfectionism, needing to be in control, or not feeling good enough. We are seeking therapy at this time because our workplace has become volatile or we feel the stress of it is increasing our feelings/beliefs about ourselves that are tied to our past.

If you are eager to see those beliefs shift, see the value of the work that YOU DO for your clients in YOU, are interested in a holistic approach to therapy, are committed to this work, want to work with someone who has been supporting therapists/social workers for many years, find community, and wants to release responsibility so that they can experience freedom, then I am here to help!
