đź’ˇ Working With Me: For When Booking Feels Hard
Or: Why You Might Disappear… and Why That’s Okay
I work with many people who experience overwhelm, burnout, chronic stress, trauma histories, neurodivergence, or just… life.
If you’ve ever found yourself:
• Struggling to follow through with scheduling
• Avoiding booking, even when you know it would help
• Feeling ashamed for “disappearing”
• Overwhelmed by forms, systems, or even replying to a text…
You’re not alone.
And you’re not broken.
🧠Executive Function Isn’t Always… Functioning
When your nervous system is in a protective mode—because of trauma, stress, grief, fatigue, or neurodivergence—basic tasks like planning, organizing, initiating, or following through can feel almost impossible.
That’s not laziness. That’s a nervous system doing what it knows how to do: survive.
Executive function—those skills that help us “stay on top of things”—can go offline when your system is trying to protect you. And ironically, the deeper this work goes, the more your system may resist scheduling the very thing that could help.
This is common.
This is human.
This is not a flaw.
🔄 The Rhythm of Healing Is Not Linear
This work can stir things up. Sometimes it brings relief. Sometimes it brings resistance.
It’s okay to come close… and pull away.
What matters is that the option to return is always here.
🤲 How I Support You (Without Overextending Myself)
I care deeply about the people I work with. But I also need to care for myself.
Here’s how I make it easier for you to re-engage—without me needing to chase or remind constantly:
• Gentle Reminders – I send automated emails/texts that are warm, not robotic.
• Re-Entry Notes – If it’s been a while, no shame. You’re still welcome here.
• Manual Booking Options – If online booking feels like too much, just reach out directly (within clear boundaries).
• “Working Together” Agreements – We can talk about what sustainable support looks like—for you and me.
🛠️ If Executive Function Is a Struggle… Let Me Know
Some people need simplicity.
Some people need reminders.
Some people need less structure, not more.
Let me know if:
• You prefer reminders by text only (or email only)
• You don’t want reminders at all
• You’d rather just be told the next 2 or 3 available spots to choose from
• You need help figuring out a rhythm that works for your system
We can shape the experience in a way that supports your capacity.
🧠If You’ve Ghosted Before—You’re Still Welcome
No matter how long it’s been, you don’t need to apologize.
You don’t have to explain.
You can always return.
When you’re ready, I’ll meet you there.
