Are you a people pleaser? Do you have a pattern of one-sided relationships? Do you find yourself at times “walking on eggshells” just to keep the peace? Do you feel as if it your duty to help everyone get through their problems to the point of sacrificing your own needs? Sometimes, the things we do in our relationships to help others end up causing us to hurt ourselves. That hurt can manifest in different ways including, but not limited to loss of energy and interest in pleasurable activities, frequent mood changes, and lack of focus and concentrating on important day to day tasks.
Humans are social creatures so it is natural that we would be affected by our relationships whether it's with a family member, a romantic partner or a friend. Let’s work together to improve your relationships to where they are mutually satisfying. I work from a person-centered approach, meaning I tailor my treatment approach around your individual needs.
As a wife, Mother, Friend, Sister, Daughter and Coworker, I understand how one can get caught up focusing on everyone except themselves. Therapy can be scary and unfamiliar, knowing this, I strive to provide a safe, empathetic, non-judgmental space for everyone!
