About
Healthy relationships are crucial to wellbeing. The more meaningful and thriving our relationships are, the better our health and wellbeing outcomes. The latest scientific research literally shows that it’s even more of a determinant of wellbeing and health than wearing a seat belt or not smoking.
This includes a quality relationship with Self. And it is comprised of relationships with other people. Even the most introverted among us are technically interdependent, social, and at times even tribal creatures by nature.
At one point or the other, most of us experience rough patches in our various relationships— with our relationship to self, romantic relationships, or platonic friendships. Unfortunately, there isn’t usually a clear roadmap or instruction manual given to us when we’re younger to help us navigate challenging personal or interpersonal hurdles, and we can end up feeling frustrated or at a loss as to how to be better at productively addressing these snags, or especially taking care of the deeper injuries that can sometimes arise in relationship. We all need support from time to time in nurturing ourselves as individuals and in relationship to others.
This is why I am passionate about offering you access to tools that nurture and tend to your most important relationships. The relationship to yourself. The relationships with your friends. And the relationship with significant others.
Meet Carolee
I am a psychotherapist that has been working in the field for over 7 years. I am an elder millennial who has traversed the path of my twenties to come full circle back to my first love, the fascinating psychology of my fellow human beings: what makes us tick, what leads us to falter, to learn and grow, to struggle, transform, and seek happiness.
I’ve been nurturing people ever since I set up my first shingle as a 9 year-old in my make-believe “school therapist” office— no joke, my mother recently sent me the cheesy homemade sign I made for my play office. It took another 20 years, a decade of which I was working in the corporate realm, to get really honest with myself about my true calling and claim the vocation that allowed me to share and leverage my superpowers.
It was important to me to partake in the intensive education required to become a therapist, rather than become a coach, because I sought to be able to skillfully and responsibly help people with ethical, trauma-informed, and highly effective approaches to mental health and interpersonal concerns.
