Are you too hard on yourself, driven to achieve or be perfect as though you might be in trouble otherwise? Do you find that constant striving is wearing you out? Maybe you're tired. Maybe you're in pain or dealing with chronic illness after ignoring your body's signals for rest, play, and comfort. Maybe you've been working your butt off to care for others or please them, only to find they don't really appreciate you. This is what we do when we feel not-good-enough. We work really hard, hoping that some achievement or accolade will finally make us feel okay.
I help overachievers and people-pleasers learn to be gentle and kind with themselves. With self-compassion as the motivator, they find they can be productive enough to meet the needs of family, work, and self - but without all the stress and angst. Often they feel more creative and joyful, having their own permission to be their normal, imperfect selves.
If you feel ready to let go of this never-ending striving, let's talk. I always to 1/2 a session free so we can see how it feels to work together and make sure the way I work is right for you. If you'd like to learn more, please visit my website or call to schedule a consultation.

With over 20 years of experience, I have a huge toolkit. This means I can customize therapy to fit your needs as you grow and change. This might mean a few sessions of hypnotherapy for stress reduction or hot flashes. It might mean EMDR to change a self limiting belief. Ultimately, my goal is to help you develop deep self compassion and strong, healthy boundaries so you can create a life you love.
