Has it been a while since you've felt like yourself? Maybe you've been snapping at your kids, struggling to get out of bed, or just wondering if this is all there is. In therapy I can help you identify the parts of yourself which may be stuck in unhelpful roles, & help them learn to relax enough to find new, more adaptive, more mature ways to help you integrate these parts. Together we can deepen your capacity for self-knowledge and find self-compassion. Self-compassion, in turn, helps us to extend empathy to the people we are closest to, and create the meaningful, authentic relationships we desire. As we increase our capacity for self-compassion, we also tend to experience more empathy. We begin to live in alignment, moving toward integration, & away from the shaky sense of self which is rooted in seeking approval from others. This integration allows for more courageous and authentic self-expression & improved self-esteem, allowing for deeper intimacy. Whether you are struggling with parenting, shifts in religious values, past trauma, relational/sexual issues, or another difficult life transition, I would love to work with you and to help you navigate the best way through. I am committed to prioritizing your values and goals and will tailor treatment to your needs. I look forward to hearing from you!
