Michael Overlie
I help people understand the hidden worlds they carry and the ones carried by those around them.
I'm a mentor who helps parents become the steady presence their children need during life's hardest transitions.
Whether you're navigating divorce, loss, uncertainty, conflict, or a season where life no longer makes sense, I help you explore the hidden worlds shaping your experience and the stories you've been carrying for years.
My work isn't about fixing you or teaching you how to be a "better parent." It's about helping you reconnect with yourself so you can show up with greater clarity, honesty, resilience, and self-trust. Children don't need perfect parents. They need adults who are willing to be real.
Through one-on-one mentoring conversations, guided explorations, and practical reflection, I help people uncover the story beneath the story, understand themselves more deeply, and navigate life's difficult terrain with greater confidence and compassion.
Sometimes the greatest gift we can offer our children is becoming the person we needed when we were their age.
Services
The relationship with your children is often shaped as much by our own hidden world as theirs. In this mentoring conversation, we'll explore the stories, fears, assumptions, wounds, and expectations influencing how you show up as a parent, so you can respond with greater awareness, compassion, and steadiness.
