Dr Elena Sherwood
MSW, PhD
I’m Elena, your Coach and Author with a layered understanding of human dynamics, and an exceptional way of getting down to the heart of the matter.
I guide women who have given too much—that place where you know something is off, something has to change and don’t know what exactly. Perhaps you already know, but might be paralyzed by indecision or some hidden fear. I help you stop abandoning yourself so you can see what else is GLORIOUSLY possible for you.
Have you had these thoughts?
“I can’t even tell what I feel anymore.”
“If I speak up, it’ll just start another argument—or worse, silence.”
“Maybe I’m the problem… I should be able to handle this.”
Stuck in Survival Mode? You’re Not Alone.
There’s a quiet place so many women end up in—where you’re still showing up, still taking care of everyone else, but inside, you feel disconnected from yourself. Numb. Foggy. Questioning what you want, what you feel, and when you stopped feeling like you.
That’s what I call self-abandonment.
I’ve come to focus on this because so many women have learned to ignore their own feelings, silence their needs, and push aside the little voice inside telling them something isn’t right. They’ve become so used to putting everyone else first that they’ve lost touch with themselves.
But it doesn’t have to stay that way.
You haven’t lost yourself forever. And you can find your way back.
If something in you is whispering, “I want to feel like me again,” you’re in the right place.
Work With Me
Maybe you have a decision to make, or you’re just frustrated with how your life feels. Perhaps you’re just not sure about anything and could use a fresh and informed perspective.
