Sometimes it's not
about knowing the answer,
but being inside
the question together.
-Andrea Gibson
Welcome.
(You may be wondering how to say my name. It's like saying "car-in" the garage. Don't worry - I'll help you!)
I know how difficult life can be.
The difficulties we encounter throughout life can be exacerbated by feeling we can't share certain parts of ourselves with others (let alone accept them within ourselves) and that we must somehow get by on our own. This can lead to feeling stuck, disconnected, overwhelmed, and hopeless.
My mission is to create a safe and welcoming space where you can be met in all your interior spaces. With curiosity, you can gain insight into the ways you've learned to protect, which may also hinder your growth and ability to connect with deserving others. You can let go of patterns that no longer serve you and develop new ways of being. When we feel more secure within ourselves and our trusted relationships, we are better equipped to navigate the myriad experiences across the lifespan.
Who I Work With:
I work with adults of all ages who feel stuck or incongruent with aspects of the self and with experiences in relationships, which can bring anxiety, depression, self-doubt, and loneliness.
My work with older adults includes learning to respond to changes in the self, others, and the world, while finding value and meaning in one's life journey and the experiences that have shaped it throughout.
I also provide emotional support to those who care for aging loved ones, such as caregivers and adult children. Grief can get buried in the demands of navigating changes and coordinating care while having to continue to manage one's own life.
