It’s time to show up for yourself.

Empowering and Intuitive Therapy

Online & in Richmond, VA

It’s back – that familiar feeling.

There is nagging in your heart, and your stomach is in knots.

You check your phone – no new notifications.

You get on Instagram and scroll through, comparing yourself to all those happy faces.

Why is no one reaching out?

The inner child within you is so hurt. Why does no one see that?

The person you are protects your inner child by lashing out in anger – or hiding from the world.

Or you compromise your values to fit in. You want to feel connected to a community, but it’s hard.

Other people don’t understand you.

Whenever you try to express your thoughts, your words are misinterpreted.

It’s overwhelming to think about the potential life you want to have. The joy, the connections, the fulfillment. Your vision of this future brings tears to your eyes.

But how to get there?

Be your own best friend and biggest advocate.

You’ve tried to heal before. But it hasn’t fully worked.

There has to be a better way.

You truly can get from where you are to where you want to go.

You can do it.

Make today different from yesterday. Each day affords a new opportunity to wake up and face the world with a fresh perspective and new lease on life.

If only the voice in your head would allow you to let go of the past, embrace the present, and build the future of your choosing.

It all starts with the stories you tell yourself.

If you ignore your inner voice, or don’t express your authentic self, you end up living a life of unfulfilled dreams.

Or even worse, you never truly know yourself.

But when you listen to yourself with compassion, you show up for yourself in a truly healing way.

You need a kind ear and guidance in a space where you can be accepted for you, 100%.

Our work together will build your confidence, keep you accountable to your goals, explore your inner workings, and make your life the work of art you genuinely desire.

Hi, I’m Elise.

Helping people take ownership of their stories is my life’s purpose.

I have been there. A long time ago, I learned that my inner world holds far more importance than the outer world.

When we choose our own stories instead of letting someone put a script in our hands, we empower ourselves to take inspired action toward our best lives.

While one individual cannot change the whole system alone, each of us acting in our power and asking others for help adds to the collective in dismantling the systems that oppress ourselves and other people.

It’s not enough to know anymore. You have to know-how and then do. Only when taking the actions that align with your inner self will you start to live the life you desire.

In our work together, you’ll learn how to bring the healing we explore in therapy into your everyday life.

You are on a sacred healing journey.

Now is the only time there is.

Take this time now to decide the kind of story you want your life to tell.

You’re ready for therapy with me if you…

  • want to explore your story with a trained expert.
  • feel like there is more to life than what you’re currently living.
  • notice yourself giving away your power to other people.
  • lack confidence in yourself.
  • constantly rely on other people’s opinions to make decisions.
  • have past hurts to heal.
  • have realized the lies you have believed about yourself up until now.

  • want to start to write your life’s story with empowerment.
