Does it feel like your inner critic has been getting its way for far too long? It’s always berating you, saying: “Nothing you do is ever good enough”... “There isn’t even much going on right now, why are you so overwhelmed?”... “You knew waiting until the last second would be awful, why do you have to waste so much time making everything perfect?”... Intuitively, you know the Critic is separate from who you are, but it gets so loud and persistent sometimes that your self-esteem can’t help but take a hit. You’re constantly feeling guilty, shameful, anxious, and small, and don’t know how to feel better. I specialize in helping introspective adults who are struggling with anxiety challenges like people-pleasing & perfectionism, suffering from trauma from narcissistic abuse, or navigating being a highly sensitive person. Together, we can work to untangle the falsely held beliefs your inner critic so insidiously perpetuated and help you trust yourself again. At the core of my approach to therapy is a belief that you matter and that your experiences are valid. In our work together, we’ll cultivate awareness of how your past affects your present, allowing you to make better decisions for your future. What would your life look like if the only approval you needed was your own? Reach out to schedule a free consult. Specialties: I offer a compassionate and validating space for adults who feel like they're never good enough, constantly walking on eggshells around others, or habitually apologizing for how they feel. I help you take back control of your life by better understanding yourself and your reactions to respond differently in the future.
