Hi there, I’m Carrie.

I’m so glad you’re here.

I’m Carrie Hill (she/her). I’m a dog mom, a Lagree enthusiast and aspiring yogi, an avid international traveler, a Washington state native (PNW 🫶), and a huge nerd for anything related to the psyche and self-healing. I’m also a licensed marriage and family therapist and private practice owner in San Diego, California.

It’s a hard thing to be a highly sensitive person, and even more so when you’re also balancing the challenges of being a high-achieving woman. It’s all too common that we doubt ourselves or face mental health struggles, navigating the space between feeling both “too much” and “not enough”.

Over the years of work that I’ve done, I’ve come to realize that the ease with which we navigate this space is largely determined by our ability to embrace and celebrate our strengths while simultaneously accepting and holding the parts of ourselves that we might not appreciate so much with non-judgment and self-compassion. These practices alone can determine whether we’re leading our lives acting as our own most powerful ally… or our own worst critic. Empowering highly sensitive and high achieving women, Adult Children, and survivors of trauma to develop and hone these skills is where my passion lies.

Through my own life experience I’ve learned the most effective and practical tools to better understand yourself, acknowledge and appreciate your unique gifts, protect and prioritize your energy, and overcome the anxieties and insecurities that are holding you back from thriving in your daily life.

Using coping skills and evidence-based therapies like mindfulness, EMDR Therapy, and IFS Therapy, I provide other highly sensitive and high achieving women with a holistic approach to help overcome the effects of trauma and complex trauma. By tapping into and building upon your inherent strengths, internal wisdom, and natural ability to heal, you can start relating to yourself and others in a healthier way, without the burdens of self-doubt, relationship anxiety, and people-pleasing behaviors. It takes work and dedication, but a life of joy and peace is waiting on the other side.

(Ps. Meet my fur-child, Hopper.)
