Identity
When you know yourself deeply, you can move through work, engage in relationships, and respond to challenges with confidence, stability, and vitality.
Self-Reflection and Discovery
Individuation – Sense of Self – Emerging Adulthood – Adolescence – Identity Development – Depression –Self-Esteem – Autonomy – Existential Anxiety – Who Am I? – Social Anxiety
You find yourself in adolescence or adulthood, working hard, trying to move forward in relationships, and feeling like an imposter in your own life. You can’t clearly see who you are, what you have accomplished, and what makes you really satisfied and happy because old barriers to being in touch with and accepting yourself are still there. Maybe you are going through big life changes and everything feels shaky because of this inner sense that you’re not sure who you are and what you have to offer.
So much becomes possible when we home in on ourselves and engage in a process of self-exploration. I specialize in facilitating this work: to empower you to know your own heart and mind and make decisions that honor who you are.
Gender and Sexuality
LGBTQ – Lesbian – Gay – Bisexual – Queer – Transgender – Pansexual – Nonbinary – Gender Non-conforming – Coming out – Questioning – Polyamorous – LGBTQ Family – Feeling Closeted – LGBTQ Affirming Therapy
You are looking to understand yourself on a deeper level, but it feels overwhelming and scary to reflect on your gender or sexuality. For reasons that you know or don’t quite know, it feels off limits to really think about these parts of yourself. Or maybe you began to inhabit your identity years ago, but you moved through painful experiences during that time, which were unprocessed and continue to linger and impact you today.
For many reasons, coming to a place of comfort and knowledge about one’s sexual and gender identity can be challenging, multi-faceted, and ongoing. Together we can explore untraversed internal terrain and welcome your most authentic self to emerge.
Career and Creativity
Creative block – Professional Identity – Imposter – Creative Inhibition – Work Stress – High Achieving – Toxic Workplace
You have limiting ideas about who you are creatively and professionally, your abilities, and what you’re capable of achieving. It’s not clear exactly where these ideas came from, but they squelch your creativity and generativity. You work so hard at what you do, but are not sure if it’s what you are passionate about, and you feel confined in your work or workplace.
As we explore your sense of self professionally, we will identify and work through what is preventing you from tapping into your own potential, feeling sure about your interests, and moving past a sense of imposter. We will cultivate confidence, so that your creative juices flow, and you can truly thrive in the workplace or studio.
