A SAFE, ACCEPTING, AND SUPPORTIVE SPACE FOR YOU TO FEEL AND BE BETTER

For Emotional Resilience & Healthy Solutions

Has it been feeling like something is not right for a while? Perhaps you find reasons to put others before yourself, minimizing your own challenges, needs, and well-being. Maybe you’re getting tired of your inner critic stopping you from moving forward. You want to dig deeper, understand, and make changes for the better.

If you feel torn in a million directions, you’re not alone — many people I work with feel this way. Together we try and make sense of what is going on, and work towards establishing patterns (both thought and life habits) that serve you better.

HOW I CAN HELP YOU

  • INDIVIDUAL COUNSELING

    Does it feel like something’s not right? In counseling you receive the support you need in navigating the emotional and life challenges you are experiencing. Find healthy solutions and improve your relationship with yourself and others.

  • HIGHLY SENSITIVE PERSON COACHING

    Do you regularly notice things that others miss? Or feel emotions deeply and feel for others a lot. Maybe you feel overwhelmed easily and need alone time to recharge? If so, you might be a Highly Sensitive Person (HSP).

I Work Well With These Issues

(Do any of these sound like you?)

Letting go of Impostor Syndrome

You’re tired of feeling like a fraud who’s about to be found out. You want to relieve yourself from the weight of this doubt and find self-confidence.

Improving Self-Esteem

You tend to put yourself last in line. You want to improve your relationship with yourself and bring out your confidence.

Dealing with Anxiety & Stress

You are realizing that you get emotionally exhausted. You would like to better deal with & express emotions.

 

Recovering from/Preventing Burnout

You’re feeling the exhaustion from accumulated stress. You want to get your energy back and become stress-proof in the future.

Balancing Work & Life

You are done with the chaos and want more calm in your life. You want to be able to do what you need to and have time left for what you want to do.

Quieting The Inner Critic

You have an overactive critic in your mind constantly judging you, stopping you from taking steps, making connections. You want to take control back.

Testimonials

  • Tekin is one of the most practical, understanding, rational, and caring people I have ever met. He is ethical, thoughtful, balanced but straightforward. I would definitely recommend his service to others and have already done so.

    M. Male, 39

  • Tekin was really helpful! He really understands highly sensitive people. I would recommend his guidance to anyone who is highly sensitive seeking support or who feels they are simply not "clicking" with their previous mental health experts.

    J. Female, 28

  • During the 6 months of sessions with Tekin Meric, I may have gotten 6 years of progress. Since our work then, the quality of my life has been so, so much better: in terms of mental, emotional, physical, personal and professional development.

    P. Male, 27

  • I saw Tekin for the first time a year ago. I was beginning to learn about my highly sensitive nature and plan a wedding in the meantime. I cannot describe how grateful I am for his steady guidance and kind nature.

    E. Female, 35

  • I am very fortunate to be able to fight my imposter syndrome with Tekin. He helped me understand the ideas I've always had and provided me with some wonderful skills that not only helped me deal with them, but also started to break them down.

    O. Female, 39

  • I really felt comfortable talking with Tekin, he provided an open atmosphere that made talking about my experiences easier. I would say we reached my goal very well! I finished my sessions, and it really met the ‘goal’ I had when I first started. I would recommend Soula to people I know because my overall experience is very positive!

    A. Male, 30

  • Tekin has helped me find new ways to understand the problems. There are not necessarily easy solutions, but Tekin certainly shed some light on the process of navigating difficulties (emotional or otherwise). At times, where solutions could be found, Tekin was well-versed in the tools/methods that may help. I found the coaching sessions very helpful in clearing my mind.

    D. Female, 29

Hi, I’m Tekin

HSP Coach & Counselor

We all need a place where we can slow down, explore ourselves, our experiences, and emotions, and get the support we need from a person who understands us for who we are.

If this sounds like something you need, working with me might be a good fit.

A Counselor That “Gets You”

As a counselor and a highly sensitive person myself, I believe in creating a non-judgemental and supportive space where we investigate and work on overcoming the patterns that have been creating imbalances in your life or keeping you stuck. My goal is to meet you where you are at and accompany you as you move forwards with more joy, freedom, and ease.
