For as long as you can remember, you have felt like you aren’t good enough. You compare yourself to others and feel inadequate in your relationships. You make yourself small in fear of being rejected and constantly overthink every decision or social interaction. Your anxiety holds you back from living the life you want to live and causes you to lose your sense of identity. You want to feel more confident and take up space with your thoughts and feelings. You want to learn who you are and how you like to express yourself. You want to accept all facets of yourself and stop anxiety from calling the shots in your life.
I work with folks struggling with anxiety concerns, navigating life transitions and experiencing challenges surrounding low self-worth. When you work with me you can expect a down to earth and compassionate approach. Being a human being is hard sometimes and I firmly believe in the healing power of humor. No stuffiness here!
Feeling your feelings is brave work. I commend you on taking this BIG first step in starting your healing journey! If anything you've read today resonates, please feel free to reach out to set up a consultation. This will be a time to see if we are a good fit, chat about the therapy process and discuss any questions you might have!
