A reflective practice for women navigating transition, identity shifts, and the quiet process of becoming more fully themselves.
Many women arrive here carrying identities that once helped them survive or succeed. The capable one. The reasonable one. The caretaker. Often these identities were adaptive — necessary, even. But over time, they can become so practiced that a woman loses contact with her own interior life beneath them.
Awake is a space for that contact to return. Not as crisis. Not as performance. As a slow, honest conversation with someone trained to meet complexity without flinching.
The work draws on narrative therapy, depth psychology, and decades of listening carefully to the lives of accomplished women. Sessions are unhurried, private, and grounded in respect for your intelligence.
We work toward clarity and coherence — not reinvention. The goal is not a different woman. The goal is contact with the one already here.
Recovering a sense of self after years inside the capable, reasonable, caretaking version of you.
Honest reflection on partnership, unresolved betrayal, or quiet disconnection.
Naming the cost of over-functioning and finding sustainable shape again.
The unfinished interior work of empty nesting, career shifts, divorce, or grief.
The gap between what you've achieved and how alive you feel.
Living more consciously, more honestly, more like yourself.

Anne Elizabeth Ubl, M.A., is the founder of AWAKE Wardrobe, a psychology-informed wardrobe refinement practice for women in transition.
A former healthcare executive, writer, and graduate of the University of Virginia and Pepperdine University’s master's program in psychology, Anne brings a unique perspective to the intersection of identity, personal style, and life transitions. Her work is grounded in the belief that clothing is more than appearance—it is one of the most visible expressions of who we are and how we move through the world.
One-on-one virtual conversations, scheduled in unhurried rhythm. Each session is a dedicated, confidential hour of psychologically grounded reflection.
