Valerie Wittman
“I feel like I’m trying so hard to hold everything together, but inside I’m barely holding on.” “I feel burned out, like I’m surviving instead of thriving.” “I’m surrounded by people, yet I can’t shake the feeling that no one truly sees me.” If any of these feel familiar, you’re not alone. College and young adulthood can bring a mix of pressure, uncertainty, and self-doubt. The fact that you’ve made it this far shows real strength. Love and joy have always been your birthright, and I’m here to help you find your way back to them.
Together, we’ll explore what’s been holding you back, uncover your strengths, and build healthier ways of coping, all while honoring your unique lived experiences. I take a trauma-informed, holistic approach that draws from CBT and mindfulness to help you better understand your thoughts, emotions, and patterns.
My hope is to provide a space that feels safe enough for honesty and soft enough for healing—a place where you can finally exhale and begin to feel like yourself again. If you’re ready to take the next step, I’d love to support you on your path toward greater well-being. Reach out by phone or email today to set up your free consultation. I look forward to meeting you.
