The Method

The Return Method™

For people who've been holding everything together for too long. This isn't recovery—it's a return to who you were before you forgot.

01
Recognition
Seeing what's true

You can't return to yourself if you don't know where you've been. We map exactly where your time, energy, and attention actually go—and identify the patterns that keep you lost.

02
Rebuilding
Creating new architecture

Knowing the pattern isn't enough. We build the actual structures that hold your new way of being—boundaries that work, decisions made from clarity, space that's truly yours.

03
Return
Living as yourself again

The shift from practicing new behaviors to embodying a new way of being. Where you stop performing boundaries and start living as someone who naturally has them.

Cheri - Founder of Baltra Advisory
Hi, I'm Cheri

I know what it costs to carry everyone.

I spent years as the one who held everything together. I was excellent at caring for others. I just forgot I was one of the people who needed care.

That pattern led me into healthcare and coaching work where I saw the same thing, over and over: capable, intelligent people who'd become so skilled at attunement to others that they'd lost the frequency of their own signal.

The Return Method emerged from that recognition—and from my own way back. It's grounded in experience, structured for change, and built for people who are done reading about boundaries and ready to actually live differently.

What People Say

— Senior Vice President, Finance

"She's the one you share a real moment of insight with — someone who understands it without making it bigger or smaller than it is."
