The past doesn't always stay in the past. Sometimes it shows up in the way you flinch at certain words, the relationships you keep choosing, or the vague unease that follows you into rooms where nothing is actually wrong. If you've ever thought, "I should be over this by now," I'd gently push back on that.
I'm June Hawkins. I focus on helping people make sense of difficult past experiences and figure out what to do with the weight they're still carrying. Not by reliving everything in painful detail, but by understanding how the past shapes your present so you can start making different choices.
My approach is methodical. I like to be thorough. We'll look at the emotions, yes, but also the patterns, the beliefs, and the habits that formed in response to what you went through. I find that when people understand the logic behind their own behavior, even the parts they don't like, something shifts. It stops feeling like a mystery and starts feeling like something they can actually work with.
I also spend time on personal growth more broadly. What do you want your life to look like going forward? What strengths do you have that you're underusing? What's one thing you could do this week that your future self would thank you for?
If you're someone who wants to understand yourself on a deeper level and is willing to do the work, I think you'll find these sessions valuable.
