Working in a Helping Profession is an important and valuable role.  There are also the unpaid Helpers that are the ones that take care of their family, friends and loved in everyday life.  The cost to the Helper can often take years to show up and doesn't always "look" the way we might expect.  It may come in the form of frustration in systems that are flawed or distress about not being able to truly help in the way we wish we could.  Eventually Helpers notice that their other relationships and hobbies are effected.  (I used to do yoga because I liked it, now it feels like I have to).

​

I have reached a place in my career where I have developed the ability to "hold space" for others who play an important Helping role.  Imagine a place where you can take off the Helper Hat, where the weight of the many caring responsibilities can be lighter and where the deep hurts of Helping can be heard without judgement?  A place where you can speak frankly about the very real and difficult challenges that come with being in a Helping profession?  The things that we can't bring home to our families and friends.

​

I have worked in acute care, primary care and hospital settings and have also done work in education and have an understanding of the unique dynamics that come with these workplaces.  Further, I have had to juggle caregiving responsibilities of my own family members' illness while still finding a way to fully be present and provide good care to my patients or clients.

I would be happy to speak with you to discuss your hopes for help for yourself!
