Do you struggle on the inside, even if others see you as capable? Maybe you criticize yourself or think you should be achieving more.

So they beat themselves up, hide their pain, and often give up on their dreams. As a therapist, I help my adult and adolescent clients discover how to respect, trust, and care for themselves, so they can live life fully again.
