I specialize in helping individuals heal low self-esteem and its debilitating consequences- anxiety, depression, negative self-talk, people pleasing, and co-dependency. Feeling like you are not good enough? You’re not alone! Low self-esteem is a core issue for many who seek therapy. You may struggle with healthy relationships, find constructive criticism overwhelming, have poor boundaries, lack assertive communication, and have low performance at work/school. Living with low self-confidence and its effects is exhausting. It really IS possible to love yourself, speak kinder to yourself, and to end feelings of shame/guilt. I can help!
Together we will get to the root of your limiting core beliefs and self-esteem issues. Self-esteem is impacted by childhood trauma, unhealthy relationships, loss of employment, physical health issues, change in status, and social media. I offer a safe, nonjudgmental, and down-to-earth space for exploration of your troubling thoughts and distressing emotions.
Reach out if you're tired of feeling low about yourself, being a doormat to others, and feeling anxious/depressed. I will teach you how to improve your self-esteem so you can finally enjoy your life! It's better to ask for help than to fall further into emotional distress and engage in self-sabotaging behaviors. Daytime and weekend appointments available.
