Are you passionate about helping others, but struggling with anxiety, depression, and exhaustion? Can you sense someone else's mood or the "vibe" of a room easily? Are you a healthcare worker, teacher, animal rescuer, or other Helper? Do you struggle to find a sense of identity and meaning outside of your work? Do you have ADHD or identify as neurodivergent? Do you struggle with people-pleasing? Are you pouring from an empty cup? Let me help you find yourself again! I can help you learn to make choices based on your core values, to establish healthy boundaries, to choose helpful coping strategies, and to create a more joyful life.
As a Certified Compassion Fatigue Professional and veterinarian for 16+ years, I am uniquely qualified to assist Helpers with vicarious trauma, burnout, and moral distress. My specialties include boundary setting, career counseling, self-harm reduction, ADHD management, body acceptance, and suicide prevention. I am proud to provide LGBTQIA2S+ affirming care.
The counseling process is a journey, and on the road of life you are in charge of choosing the destination, mapping the route, and driving the bus. My role is to encourage you to approach your journey with curiosity. Also, like any good copilot, I will occasionally provide snacks. I invite you to schedule a free phone consult to see if we are a good fit!
