Finding My Safe Haven: A Heartfelt Journey to Create Piece by Piece Consulting and Coaching

For over 21 years, I’ve immersed myself in the healthcare industry, with more than six of those years devoted to the profound field of mental health. My journey has taken me from humble entry-level positions to impactful leadership roles across various levels of care, from the bustling energy of hospitals to the intimate setting of private practice. Along the way, I’ve experienced firsthand the mounting pressures and unique challenges we face as professionals every single day.

I can’t tell you how many times I’ve felt the heavy weight of frustration bearing down on me—long hours, emotional exhaustion, and the relentless drive for perfection that often feels impossible to achieve. In those moments, what I craved most was a safe haven: a space where I could express my frustrations, connect with others who truly understood my struggles, and gain new perspectives on the challenges weighing me down. I often found myself wondering, “Why isn’t there a place I can go where no one knows me, where I can share openly without fear of judgment or bias?”

That yearning for connection and understanding is what fuels my passion today—to create a supportive environment for others navigating similar paths. You are not alone in this journey, and together, we can forge a community that uplifts and empowers us all.

I was Longing For Connection and Support

That deep longing for connection and support has inspired me to create Piece by Piece Consulting and Coaching. This isn’t just a business to me; it’s a heartfelt mission born from my own experiences and challenges. I strive to provide a nurturing environment where you can express your feelings openly, free from the pressures and expectations of the professional world and self imposed barriers from your personal life.

If you’re feeling overwhelmed and yearning for that elusive safe space, know that I’m here for you. I understand the struggles you face because I’ve walked that path myself. At Piece by Piece Consulting and Coaching, you’ll discover a haven filled with compassion, understanding, and a community that genuinely supports you. You don’t have to navigate this journey alone; together, we can take meaningful steps toward peace and clarity in your professional and personal life. Your safe space is ready, and I can’t wait to welcome you with open arms. Let’s embark on this transformative journey together!

As I reflect on my career, I can confidently say that the most transformative aspect has been the consultations I’ve engaged in. These collaborative sessions have not just been beneficial; they have been pivotal in shaping my journey as a therapist. They have provided me with a sanctuary—a safe space to unpack my thoughts, address my challenges, and celebrate my successes. In these moments of sharing and learning, I found a profound sense of belonging and growth.

Whether you are seeking consultation to hone your skills as a therapist, need mentoring and support, or want to perfect your goals in your therapeutic career and personal journey, I’ve got you. If you’re pursuing certification in EMDR or looking for consultations to fulfill your EMDR requirements, I’m here for you as well. The insights gained from my colleagues during these consultations have opened my eyes to new perspectives and alternative approaches. It’s been a humbling experience to realize that I don’t have to navigate this complex field alone. The diverse viewpoints have enriched my practice, empowering me to refine my skills and adapt my techniques to meet the unique needs of each client more effectively.

As a result, I’ve seen remarkable improvements in my clients’ outcomes. I now tackle complex cases with a newfound confidence and compassion, knowing that I have a network of support behind me. The power of consultation has reshaped my identity as a therapist, deepening my commitment to providing effective, trauma-informed care.
