Shame is never a motivator. Many of your issues may be rooted in shame that you never even realized. Shame can take on many forms; pressure to live up to other's expectations of us, pressure to perform at the rate those around us seem to be, or pressure to live up to our own impossible standards we have created for ourselves. When these measures are not met, we can feel depleted, discouraged, and even hopeless. Or perhaps we have been verbally told by others (either past or present) they were disappointed in us or we weren't good enough. And we cannot seem to escape these defeating and destructive thoughts.
The hopeful news is, shame can be uprooted! I work with each person to uncover their most unique strengths and abilities which many times have been buried beneath negative thought patterns or detrimental core beliefs systems. When we are able to refine our own individual potential, there is an amazing sense of empowerment and authentic freedom to be found!
I would like to provide a safe place for you; extending grace, acceptance and support as you might be walking through a painful or devastating situation and may be having difficulty finding hope. Or perhaps you need help identifying what is holding you back from fulfilling your greatest potential and life purpose. Together, we can restore your inspiration!
