it’s time:
sessions of
deep connection & spacious flow…
without:
the burnout & compassion fatigue.
Transform chronic depletion, self-doubt, and overwhelm into:
→emotionally rich client connections
→self-trust & authenticity
→boundless creativity & energy
it is possible to connect without depletion:
Are you a gifted practitioner, but each year the weight of caring for others gets a little (or a lot) heavier? It’s time to end the cycle of over-extension, chronic depletion and self-doubt.
It’s time to change the paradigm that being in a caring profession is draining work.
Your practice can energize you….
every single session.
(If that sounds impossible you’re in the right place!)
→Yes, the industry practically systematizes burnout, but emotional and professional freedom isn’t a far-off dream.
→You can transform your practice into the spacious & soul-nourishing career you first imagined it could be, without dropping half your clients or resigning yourself to financial scarcity.
i’m leif. i’ve been that
practitioner:
Have glimpses of those magical moments: truly connecting with clients, while feeling fully aligned with myself and my gifts . But most days were spent secretly blaming everything and everyone (including myself) for why I was so exhausted and over-extended.
Eventually I had to make the choice:
Quit or Change.
I changed. Slowly and often uncomfortably, I took full responsibility for how I felt in relationship with clients. I acknowledged that indeed it is a relationship. That means who I am in session is as necessary as the client is.
I had to deconstruct everything I’d learned about what it means to support someone, to listen, to be there. And find out for myself if I could really be both a care practitioner and be fully alive, fully energized, fully myself.
Turns out, I can.
Now I’m here to help you make the shift.
“I’m able to practice what presence actually feels like and means, rather than leaning too far into another's emotional experience, which was unknowingly draining my energy. I recommend Leif’s workshops and her 1:1 support!”
-caroline lewis, MAMFT
“Meeting with Leif validated so many of my early experiences and questions surrounding how to fully be with my clients’ emotional experiences—without fear or resistance to what arises in me along the way. She helped me reframe my beliefs about what it means to be a therapist and claim my power to build a practice that feels deeply aligned and fulfilling.”
-molly, LMSW
“Leif oozes integrity. Even through my first group process and Free 1:1, I gained insight to my internal process that otherwise was just on autopilot. Now I know what to shift. I’ve felt supported and worthy of taking my journey to the next level.
-joel, LCSW
“ I realized that the relationship with my clients can be more fluid, that I am allowed to learn from my clients and be affected by them. I can leave my heart open without being swallowed up by whatever my client is moving through.”
-hope, rolfing practitioner

“Leif looks you in the eye with a passion, conviction, and energy that pulls you, like a magnetic force, toward your true self. I still feel this pull: a pull towards myself, a pull towards relationships with others, and a pull towards the things I want. I am forever grateful for the time and energy that Leif poured into me and hope that our paths cross again.”
