Looking at your Instagram page it looks like you have it all together. The “perfect” life.  No one ever suspects anything is wrong because you hide it so well. 

When really if they were to uncover the truth it’s that you struggle with feeling good enough. You work hard at getting that part of you buried deep, deep, down. 

There is a running tape in your head that plays over and over. It says things like, “You aren’t interesting enough.” “You are so far behind.” “You must be perfect in order for people to accept you.” You are always left feeling not enough. Not perfect enough. Not skinny enough. Not smart enough. Not successful enough. Not enough. You go through life trying and hustling but always feeling like you are coming up short.

You have been in survival mode for a long time and, you are exhausted.  Maybe there is something in your past that lingers, maybe it was abuse, maybe it was parents who were not emotionally available, maybe it was always feeling inadequate or out of place. Now there is an open wound you can’t seem to heal with any amount of carbs, vodka, netflix, sex, or working your ass off.

You can probably see the light. You might even know how to get there but can’t seem to move your body towards it. You are ready to feel joy about the good things in your life instead of waiting for the next shoe to drop. You are ready to stop the running tape in your head saying, “you don’t deserve to be happy.” You want to be able to sleep at night. You want to be able to relax. You want to be able to look in the mirror and love the person you see.

If all of this sounds like you, you’ve come to the right place.

I am Addie Wieland, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. My passion, and, the one thing that makes me jump out of bed in the morning, is working with adults just like you. Those who have stuff in their past they rather not talk about, but, it’s constantly in the back of their minds. I chose the name Everyday Bravery because I want my clients to know I believe in them, I hold hope for them even when they can’t see it themselves, and the mere fact they are willing to sit across from a stranger and speak their most intimate truth is one of purest forms of everyday bravery I get the privilege of witnessing all the time.

How I Can Help?

Why choose me?

As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, I have received advanced education and supervision on how to understand, treat and work with clients who struggle with overwhelming emotions. In addition to my formal education, I have made it my life’s mission to learn all I can about people who struggle with feeling unworthy and how to best support them in getting un-stuck.

Convenient

Online Counseling means no commute, no traffic, we can pretty much “meet” anywhere that is private (including your car!). You never have to miss an appointment again if you don’t want to. Plus my secure client portal allows for 24/7 online scheduling and more.

Specialized

I eat, sleep, and breathe trauma and shame. I have a hard time calling myself a trauma expert because the field is always evolving and changing. One thing I know for sure is I will continue my relentless pursuit in learning all I can to support you.

Quality

I maintain a small caseload as I believe in quality over quantity. I want to be able to give my clients the best care and devote a lot of attention and detail to their case.
