Welcome to a Space Where You’re not ‘Too Much’, but Perfectly You

I'm Hilke, and I help deep-thinking women who've always felt slightly out of step with the world transform their exhausting pursuit of 'normal' into their unique path to peace. With nearly 30 years of experience in health, education, and counselling, I understand what it's like to navigate life on a different wavelength.

Feel like you're:

  • Wondering why life seems harder for you than everyone else?

You're in exactly the right place.

Elena’s Story

Elena, a 38-year-old marketing manager, had spent her life feeling like she was too much - too intense, too sensitive, too exhausted by things that didn’t seem to bother anyone else. She was brilliant at her job, coming up with ideas that made her team look good, but the open-plan office left her overwhelmed. By the time she got home, she had nothing left for her partner, and even seeing her friends felt like another thing to push through.

In our sessions, we used EFT Tapping to work through old wounds - the childhood messages that told her she had to tone herself down to be accepted. We found ways to manage sensory overload, set boundaries at work, and structure her days to work with her energy, not against it.

Now, instead of running on empty, Elena starts her mornings with a quiet walk before work, has honest conversations with her partner, and enjoys her job without burning out. She’s not trying to be less anymore - she’s finally living in a way that works for her.

Feeling happy and confident with who she is, Elena doesn’t need regular appointments anymore but schedules a ‘maintenance and fine-tuning’ appointment every few months to ensure she remains vibrant and strong.

Neurodivergent Women: You’re Welcome Here

I support deep-thinking, deep-feeling women who may be autistic, have ADHD, or simply feel different from the world around them. Whether you’re diagnosed, self-identified, or still figuring it out, you are welcome here.

Burnout, Overwhelm, and Masking
Many neurodivergent women spend years trying to meet expectations that don’t fit how their brains naturally work. If you’re exhausted from masking, people-pleasing, or overthinking every interaction, we can work together to find ways that feel more natural and sustainable for you.

Relationships, Boundaries, and Self-Trust
You might feel like you’re ‘too much’ or ‘not enough,’ struggle with setting boundaries, or find relationships draining. I help women navigate these challenges while honouring their unique way of thinking, feeling, and experiencing the world.

Therapy That Works for Your Brain
I won’t try to ‘fix’ you because you don’t need fixing - you’re perfect, just the way you are. Instead, we’ll explore strategies that align with how your mind works, helping you build a life that supports your needs, energy, and well-being.

If this resonates with you, you’re in the right place.
