Jamie Woelk

Hi. I'm Jamie. I’m smart, quirky, and introverted. And a deep feeler. I’ll notice things about you that most people don’t and I’ll point at things that most people won’t. I’ll meet you with a depth of presence that’s pretty rare in this world, and I’ll create lots of space for what’s true for you to emerge. I love models and frames and theories and will share bits and pieces with you that might help you see outside of the cages you feel stuck in. There’s important information about who you are and what matters most to you in the places inside of you that often get criticized or ignored because they seem weird, scary, impolite or “too much.” I hope we can give those spaces some attention so that, over time, you can come to trust more deeply that it’s good to be you. In my work, with clients and with my own patterns, shifts tend to happen from gradually opening to more and more of our actual internal experience. We inquire into what is already happening inside of us with spacious, curious, friendly attention. Whatever you’re experiencing in a given moment is a great place to start. Talking about the problems in your life is also a fine starting point. All kinds of experience are welcome, though we do usually give emotions more attention than things like explanations and solutions. I'll give you lots of space to explore what's true for you, while offering my perspective and more direction if it seems helpful or if you request that. While keeping the focus on you, I bring my humanness into the room, which hopefully allows you to explore and share all of your experience more freely as well. I’ll get it wrong sometimes, and hopefully over time you’ll get more and more comfortable with telling me so. The tension that arises in our interactions is usually a rich source of information about patterns and challenges in other relationships.
