Confidence, unlocked.

In the early stages of therapy, many of my high-achieving, ambitious and career- driven clients have the same fear:  What if I’m not as good after doing this work? 

To me, this fear makes sense.  You've spent a lifetime gaining ground, only to suspect your ambition and your pain share the same root.  I'll confirm that yes, in many ways, they do.  Your ambition has been rooted, at least partially, in fear.  It's been rooted in the fear of what will happen if everyone discovers the ‘truth’ about you; the fear of failing and what that means about who you are and what you are worth.  There's even the fear of having to face the truth about yourself.   

Having sat in the therapist chair for the last 15 years, I've learned that when we do this work to repair the impact of your painful past, you will not suddenly lose your ability to achieve, accomplish and move forward. In fact, you will likely gain access to an innate, authentic confidence, creativity and clarity that will allow you to achieve far more than you ever have in fear.   

One of the problems with fear-based drive is that it blocks access to true confidence and creativity.  It causes us to move forward with reactivity, rather than with intentional responsiveness. 

Imagine what you could achieve with true, authentic confidence, creativity and clarity.  

Imagine how far you could go without being held back by fear.   

This is exactly the work we do in my EMDR, Brainspotting and IFS extended sessions at my office in Farmington Hills, Michigan. These are longer, intensive sessions designed for people who have already “done the talk therapy” and know something deeper is needed.

We first work through the pain of the past, finally confronting it and addressing it properly.  Then, we move into the phase of expansion, where your innate qualities and gifts can take up the space they were always meant to.
