 Are you questioning everything? Growing up, you identified as sensitive, introverted, queer, and/or part of the minority, often felt like you don’t belong. You learned to survive becoming what other people expected. As an adult, you realize you aren’t living your life. If you are of a minority identity and a young working professional, the transition into the harsh realities of work/life was likely tough. It can be anxiety-provoking to go through it alone.

We can work together to understand yourself and how to move through the world without having to numb out and/or use unhealthy coping skills, which can include looking within, exploring your identities in a nonjudgmental safe space, and grieving how you were treated growing up. You are worthy because you exist. 

As a fellow introvert, highly sensitive person, and recovering perfectionist, I understand how difficult it can be to navigate through today’s demanding and cis/hetero-normative society. In addition, I have a soft spot for you, who tried your best and are often struggling to stay afloat since you were likely taught to suffer in silence. It takes a lot of courage to reach out and ask for help, especially if you were taught not to.

If you are ready, click here to schedule your free initial 15-minute video consultation. Feel free to contact us if you have questions. I look forward to working with you. 

"There are things that we don't want to happen but have to accept, things we don't want to know but have to learn, people we can't live without but have to let go" - Nancy Stephan
