I work with people to encourage them to practice self-acceptance and improve their relationships. For many people, the difficulty they are experiencing began with early learning. Sometimes the beliefs we carry about ourselves are at the root of anxiety and depression. Sometimes there are issues of trauma that need more resolution. With time, understanding and support, you can improve your life. In working with clients my first step is to build an understanding of the issues and the person/persons in front of me as well as I can. From there it's a process of finding what skills and techniques work for you. It does get better.
I frequently assist clients with accepting themselves and practicing self-compassion. I've found that taking a learning approach typically saves energy and time in moving forward. Identifying and modifying habitual negative thoughts can also help. Along with that learning to accept emotional states can be a powerful change.
I hope that you find your way to the help you need, and I am ready to assist you as well as I can. I provide a free phone consultation in order to facilitate this process. I will return all calls as soon as possible.
