If you would like to be met with warmth, compassion, and kindness, you have come to the right place! As a trained self-compassion informed therapist, my goal is to help those struggling with anxiety, depression, emotional or compulsive eating, and self-esteem issues to create change...through acceptance. Carl Rogers famously said, “The curious paradox is that when I accept myself just as I am, then I can change." I know how hard it can be to find self-acceptance when it feels like everything in our lives is going wrong. I would like to support you in your journey to self-acceptance…both when things are working and when they are not.
Many of us have been beating ourselves up for years. We've read all the books. We've tied ourselves in knots. All in the name of self-improvement. But it doesn't have to be that way! Consider this idea: self-acceptance and self-kindness are key! What is your relationship with yourself like? Because your relationship with yourself is your key to a happy life.
My goal is to help you discover the goodness, strength, and wisdom that are already within you so that when you walk away from our sessions, you will have more self-confidence, more self-compassion, and a toolbox of strategies to handle the inevitable challenges of life...and to experience increasing peace and joy.
