My name is Adrienne. I’m a great listener and keen observer who loves helping people discover who they really are, heal their wounds, and make their unique contributions to the world.

I am innately courageous, determined, and oriented towards mutual support and collective thriving. I prefer the simplicity of honesty and integrity to the comfort of ignorance or denial. I am allergic to evangelism of all types. I wholeheartedly affirm each individual’s right and need to live life on their own terms, along with our individual and collective need for healthy communities. I both long for a better world and also find it in creative expression and nature.

I was raised by a narcissistic mother and an enabling father. I am breaking the cycle for myself and my child. I am the granddaughter of my grandfather who loved me unconditionally. I have deep roots in upstate NY dairy farming. I am endlessly fascinated by human nature and have dedicated my life to learning how to human with greater safety and efficacy. I am shaped by the people who hurt me and the people who helped me heal. I am shaped by the culture I live in, and by my efforts to decolonize my mind and heart. I am shaped by the natural environment I live in. I believe that we all come into this world with something to learn and something to share.

I am on a journey to reclaim and fully inhabit my power, and to help others do the same. We are stronger together.
