When you felt bad as a kid who did you talk to? Was it easy to talk about feelings? Did you feel seen,
important or acknowledged?
The way your needs and feelings were dealt with or possibly ignored as a child directly influences
almost every aspect of your life today – relationships, communication, goals, and even
self-image.
It’s likely a very intuitive part of you wants to make sense of something and believes healing and
growth is possible whether that means: learning new skills for communicating, making peace with elements
of your past, practicing tools to manage anxiety and depression, or deepening your connection with your
Self. I look forward to hearing your unique story.

About Colette: I grew up in a very large family of creative artists. A lot of big stuff happened over the years but no one never talked about it. Addressing issues from childhood in my own therapy inspired me to leave my 20-year career in the entertainment industry and devote myself to helping others. I’ll make it a priority to create a safe space for your feelings, beliefs, and thoughts to be expressed and heard. (ps: creativity and humor are welcome).
