It's normal to experience a wide range of emotions. Acknowledging what’s true—without getting stuck in it—is where we begin through online therapy. Leveraging over 20 years as a licensed LPC and CSAC, I provide compassionate, tailored counseling to help you achieve emotional steadiness and profound self-trust. Can you relate? Tell me if this is you. -You're relying on obsessive coping habits for relief, or you fear relapse and are exhausted. -You constantly overexplain your pain, symptoms, or goals to be believed. -You work hard, but rest feels uncomfortable or “unearned.” -You’re praised for being reliable, yet you feel resentful, depleted, or numb. -You overthink conversations, decisions, and mistakes for hours (or days). -You avoid conflict, people-pleasing, or overfunction—and then crash. My professional expertise is deeply enriched by personal experience as a high achiever and entrepreneur who has navigated sobriety, chronic health recovery, and caregiving. While offering gentle support, I am direct when necessary, gently challenging the patterns that keep you feeling stuck. We will dedicate our work to cultivating genuine resilience, with a core emphasis on strengthening your boundaries and self-advocacy skills to ensure your essential needs are consistently met. We will actively shape a clearer, more powerful future, moving toward the ultimate goal: a strong sense of purpose. I am ready whenever you are- warmest, Shelley.
