Do you want to bring calm and confidence into your life?

You’ve come to the right place.

Hey, I'm Holly.

I’m your classic eldest daughter and recovering overthinker. I say recovering because I’ve learned how to manage it (for the most part); so much so that my husband and I can joke about it (see my favorite coffee mug below.) I’m proudly born and raised in Colorado and love to talk about shows I’ve seen at Red Rocks (Sara Bareilles was a bucket list one for me). I probably use too many parantheticals when I write.

I know it feels like your inner critic has authored a burn book all about you. She never tires of flipping through the pages, keeping you stuck in a loop of insecurities.​

Don’t you wish you had the tools to change that?

I help overwhelmed women just like you: ones who have what it takes to get un-stuck and just need a guide to help find their way through.

​Being stuck isn't your fault. Many of today’s solutions for anxiety, overwhelm, and self-worth are superficial, and the relief doesn't last - because your problems were never superficial.

Deep-seated problems require depth-oriented solutions.

Let's find what's stuck that's causing the yuck - because it's going to take more than the perfect skin care routine and overpriced supplements to get the relief you’re looking for.

​I help my clients find compassion for and trust in themselves by equipping them with the tools they need to understand how their past experiences are manifesting today.

My Approach to Counseling

01. We map out the what of your current challenges.

02. We build acceptance and compassion for this struggling version of you.

03. We go digging for the why. You've looked before, but never with me.

04. You identify, untangle, and reprocess the problematic messages you've internalized.

05. You finally understand - the kind of understanding the brings deep and lasting change.

You finally feel free.

My education and training means I have the expertise you need and deserve (receipts below). But - after confirming I'm not a charlatan (which you should) - what you really want to know is if I think you're pathetic and overreacting, right? 

You believe you shouldn't be stuck at all, and you gaslight yourself about it more than anyone else.

You're on the hamster wheel from hell: persistently anxious and overwhelmed, then minimizing and criticizing those very feelings, which only feeds the nagging voice in your head that says you’re simultaneously not enough and also too much.

I get it and I don't think you're pathetic or overreacting because I've been there myself. More importantly, I’ve helped many clients on their own hamster wheels find peace.

When we work together, you won’t just get a trained therapist. You’ll get someone who truly understands what you’re going through and knows the steps to break free.
