The Daring Way™ is a highly experiential methodology designed for work with individuals, couples, families, work teams, and organizational leaders. As one of the only providers trained in this methodology in our area, I am thrilled to be able to offer this powerful process to my clients, via group experiences as well as individual sessions.

Within The Daring Way™ methodology, I use three curriculum programs, based on the research of Brené Brown, PhD., that correspond to her books- Daring Greatly™, Rising Strong™, and Gifts of Imperfection™. In these programs we explore topics such as vulnerability, courage, authenticity, shame, and worthiness. Through exercises and discussions we examine the thoughts, emotions, and behaviors that are holding us back, and we identify the new choices and practices that will move us toward more authentic and wholehearted living. The primary focus is on developing tools for greater emotional resilience and daily practices that transform the way we live, love, parent, and lead.

Here’s how Brené describes the progression of her work:
The Gifts of Imperfection – Be you.
Daring Greatly – Be all in.
Rising Strong – Fall. Get up. Try again.

While the Daring Greatly™, Rising Strong™, and Gifts of Imperfection™ programs invite learning, growth, and connection, they are not clinical programs. They are not intended to diagnose or treat any mental health condition, nor are they meant as a substitute for medical care, individual therapy, substance abuse treatment, eating disorder treatment, or any other clinical program. This group may not be for you if you are looking for trauma-based work or if you dislike communal support. If you are not sure whether or not these groups are relevant or appropriate for you and your needs, please reach out for a free consult.
