I wanted to first say I think it's great you're wanting change for your life. I give you so much credit and really respect you for looking deeper into growing, healing and expanding your life.
It doesn’t have to be so hard!
Your presence is your greatest gift!
It starts with you, your time is now!
I have always had a passion for growth and expansion, improving life personally and professionally! My journey began a long time ago when I was just a girl growing up in a fast, crazy world! (Guess I still am!)
So, I became a formally trained Licensed Clinical Social Worker and a Licensed Alcohol and Drug Counselor in the state of Connecticut. I am also remote in the state of Vermont, a place very near and dear to my heart. In addition, I am known for the work I do as a guide, healer, and mentor in Self Improvement Coaching. Consulting is something I became passionate about offering because, well, let’s be honest- this world needs it. Social media and technology largely dictate our wellness and balance, our success-
I’m not ok with that! Your life, your business are your own.
It’s time to take ownership over it and make your goals come to life!
While there are many therapists and guides to choose from, I actually know and have lived some of the pain that you are in. The suffering, struggling, feeling overwhelmed, paralyzed, the uncertainty bringing you to your knees with mental and physical distress. I live every day managing and prioritizing my mental health and overall well being.
That was a choice I made long ago and still do consciously choose every day. It is a journey I have come to appreciate and allow to guide me. In understanding triggers and gaining awareness and insight not only internally, but externally as well, we can live a consciously empowered life- standing in our truest selves without depleting or draining ourselves for the world around us.
Life hasn't always been in balance for me. Anxiety has been a constant in my life since I was a little girl. The tightness in my chest, desperately needing to cling to control that I would never show, feeling the pressure, both perceived and that I learned to put on myself, was real and unnerving. I always wanted to help people even to the point of putting other’s needs and emotions first; suffering for what I thought was for the greater good.
Any other people pleasers out there!?
Having endured a horrific accident in my teenage years, I was forced to look at my life and ask myself if I wanted to continue this unbalanced, unhealthy way of life. Eh, I didn't really have a choice at the end of it. How badly did I need to be in control still?
Lucky to have not been paralyzed let a lone alive, I came home to a reality that was less than ideal.
It was as if productivity and motivation, my passion and drive, ceased to exist for me and giving in was all I could do. For an uptight, anxious, type A person always wanting to be in control, I was unable to live my life without experiencing devastating distress daily. I wasn’t sure how I would be able to live again let alone not suffer from what I had just experienced, the unraveling of a stubborn and vulnerable mind.
It is through my own experiences and of others that I am able to continuously marvel at the unfolding of life. I will always be thankful for my journey for it not only guided me to mental health support, but it helped me find
my purpose, my meaning, my happiness.
I became further intrigued with the field of psychology and human behavior as I watched family and friends struggle with their own issues too. Through my own experiences and educational career I have been able to relate to people in a way that fulfills the dedication and passion I hold for working with others. The more I learned about behavior in regards to our thoughts, feelings, and the environment that surrounds us, the more I wanted to know.
We often feel so much is out of our control or that our unhappiness will never change, when, in reality, we are the change we are looking for. We were born to thrive, be free from struggle, from pain. It is our human condition that we need to avoid these negative states when, in reality, all we ever do is battle the every day experience and struggle to find our way. We can stop fighting ourselves now and learn a healthier, more beneficial way to navigate a world that wants us to be followers not leaders. We can achieve anything we set our minds to.
We are all unique and that is a super power.
This is where Clear Sanity was born.
I share a glimpse into my story in hopes it will inspire others to find their balance and happiness. I encourage others to be in charge of their own lives and ultimately their own happiness.
I am here for you and your journey.
