Meet Auntie Anxiety

Have you ever wished that you had someone to talk with who could lend an ear AND provide gentle guidance AND who supported you in being YOU (or maybe a bigger and bolder version of YOU)?

Guess What? You finally found her!

​​AUNTIE ANXIETY (ANTI-ANXIETY—GET IT?) IS A COURAGE COACH. SHE IS YOUR ANXIETY ALLY
​Her job is to guide you in learning how to turn your Worries, Fears, and Self-Doubt into Wisdom, Freedom, and Self-Confidence!

What is a Courage Coach, you ask? You know how there are sports coaches and voice coaches and acting coaches and life coaches—all of which support and guide people to take their skill set to the next level? Well a Courage Coach provides support and guidance for people who are ready to make progress in dealing with their worries, fears, and self-doubt (all of those challenging issues that fall under the heading of "anxiety"), so that they move forward with feeling empowered to face any obstacle that may cross their path!

​Business Beacons

Tuesdays (biweekly) • Ongoing • 11:30-1:00 p.m.
Helpers, Healers, and Creative Entrepreneurs often have a loud VOD (Voice of Doubt) with at least a splash of Imposter Syndrome especially when it comes to the business side of their business.

Who needs a Courage Coach or Counselor?

Anyone and Everyone? Ok, so I am a bit biased and there is some truth in this statement. My decision to move from the Counseling Arena (where treatment is often driven by the insurance companies, which are focused on a medical model of health care) to the Coaching Arena (oh the freedom to truly walk with clients side by side) was so that I could really focus on my "Ideal Client."  

SO NOW YOU ARE WONDERING, "WHO IS AN IDEAL CLIENT FOR AUNTIE ANXIETY?"

Auntie Anxiety works with intelligent and motivated teens and adults who find themselves holding back or frozen by worry, fear, doubt, and anxiety.

Is school  (high school, college, graduate) or the transitions between causing you to want to curl up in a ball and watch the world go by?

Are you a creative type who would love to develop your great idea into an entrepreneurial adventure, but fears around safety and security are keeping you tied to a job that is sucking your soul?

Are you the parent of a child (of any age) who worries or is fearful and you would like some guidance in dealing with their (and your own) anxiety?

Is your soul ready to reach out and embrace the joy, yet you find yourself constricted and holding back, afraid to be uncomfortable, not believing you can handle it?

Do you find yourself sitting on the sidelines of life, talking yourself out of jumping in and having fun?

Is anxiety creeping it's way in (or has it always been a "third wheel") in your relationships?

Do social situations cause you to freeze, want to flee, or do you simply avoid them altogether?

Why wait until you have a diagnosable mental health disorder* to work with a professional to learn how to deal with your anxiety?
