Meet C.A.
Life Coach, Logical Mystic, Highly Sensitive Introvert & Closet Philosopher.
Hi, I'm Carissa and I'm a raging introvert, empath and highly sensitive person. For most of my life I struggled in one way or another. With anxiety, with depression, with negativity and a general certainty that there's no place for me in this world. The great thing about difficult experiences are the lessons they bring and through these challenges, I have learned how to be radically and authentically me and to value my contributions to the world.
This website is meant to be a refuge for other people like me who appreciate solitude, deep thought, the artistic, the philosophical, the mystic and the incomparable beauty of nature.
Follow along with me as I continue my own journey as a true and unapologetic Hermit in a world that may not always recognize or value quiet contributions, but more than certainly needs them.
Testimonial
"I never thought I would find life coaching useful since I AM a life coach. Boy, was I wrong. Once we got going on archetypes, I never looked back! Wow! I strongly urge you to just try it. I think you’ll be amazed."

"The truth is: Belonging starts with self-acceptance. Your level of belonging, in fact, can never be greater than your level of self-acceptance."
- Brene Brown
Testimonial
"Carissa is a natural listener who is skilled at getting you to think a little deeper. In a year that brought many challenges she helped me navigate my thoughts and develop an action plan, without ever making me feel she was being pushy or judgmental. Carissa is a perfect balance of personal and professional and I highly recommend her coaching."
