Perfectionism tells us that we need to wait. Wait until it’s ‘just right’. Until there’s a guarantee. Until we have an ‘ideal’ body. Until it is, or we are, perfect. I’ve been there and I’m done waiting around. If you’re ready to remove perfection as the gatekeeper of your life’s biggest moves, I’m ready to support & cheer you on along the way! As a recovering people pleaser & fellow human being, I understand the anxiety and exhaustion of chasing perfection firsthand. Add social media into the mix and it’s no wonder we all feel the pressure to look, act, & do everything just “right”. When there are endless opportunities to compare and scroll, sometimes we need space to be still & connect with the joy of being ourselves. In therapy with me, you can count on someone who is relatable, enthusiastic, & invested in transformation that feels genuine to you and your goals. Whether we’re talking about recent events or analyzing deeply rooted patterns and beliefs, my approach is to be curious and compassionate, leaving judgement at the door. I bring my authentic personality into the room (laughter, tears, & sarcasm included) and I invite you to do the same- we’ll talk about the hard stuff, but we’ll also laugh, celebrate the victories, & unearth the wisdom and power already inside you.
