I work with clients who struggle with second-guessing themselves and have people-pleasing behaviors. A typical treatment plan involves identifying goals and beginning to take steps to build self-confidence. We typically discuss ways to improve self-esteem and meet your emotional needs. Most of my clients see themselves in a more favorable light and are confident in their life choices.
