Welcome!

“Courage starts with showing up and letting ourselves be seen.”
- Brené Brown
You’re exhausted. You feel an unwavering pressure to be perfect without ever showing it, complaining, or asking for help. You feel disconnected from your mind, body and spirit, but often times it feels safer to just keep everything you’re feeling inside because you’re afraid of what might happen if you let it out. I get it. Change is scary. And it’s not something you have to experience alone.
As Brené Brown so beautiful reminds us, “Vulnerability is not weakness; it is our greatest measure of courage.” Let’s walk this path together.

You’re tired of hearing the words: “You’re too sensitive.” You feel things deeply not just in your mind but throughout your body, and you find it hard to witness pain without experiencing pain. You easily become overwhelmed when exposed to loud noises, busy days, or experience an abrupt change in plans. You have a rich and elaborate inner world and are deeply moved by expressive arts. You notice subtleties in people and things in your environment, and you’ve often been labeled as “shy” or “introverted.” You’ve always known yourself to be different from the “norm” but could never quite put words to why or how. If any of this applies to you, you may be a highly sensitive person - together let’s explore the intricacies of this personality trait and how it impacts your day to day.
