About
You’ve always been the person who made sure those around you felt good, even when that’s meant putting your needs on the back burner to take one for the team. It’s never been easy but to you it’s been worth it and you’ve been good at it. Yet, lately, it isn’t working out that well any more. The anxiety has been constant. You’re getting irritated and snapping at people more easily. You’re angry with yourself and sad. Hell, if you’re honest, you’re feeling a bit resentful towards others too. Enter the guilt. You feel horrible for being mean to your parents, partner, kids, friends. You wonder, "What is going on with me?!"
What if there's a way to find middle ground between being selfless and selfish? Imagine knowing and being grounded in yourself, making decisions that honor yourself, while still being connected to those you love. Picture showing up in your relationships as you are and not fearing disappointing others. I can help you learn to feel good enough just as you are.
I work with women (college age and up) who don’t feel good enough and are experiencing anxiety, depression, and/or confusion about who they are/want to be. I help my clients know and like themselves better, become empowered, and make more constructive choices. If you'd like to work with me, visit my website or email to schedule your free phone consultation.
