Performance Pressure
I frequently work with individuals who are committed to high achievements, outcomes, and exceptionally high standards. If words like "imposter syndrome," "perfectionism," or "burnout" resonate with you, you're not alone. these words often point to a shared struggle: living a life that strays far from what truly brings us joy and fulfillment. As a result, satisfaction becomes elusive while stress levels soar.
Trauma
I also work extensively with individuals who have faced profoundly challenging experiences, leaving them feeling vulnerable, heartbroken, or shattered. Whether these events occurred recently or in childhood, they can take on a life of their own, haunting my clients, still hurting them as they struggle to heal and move forward.
Negative Self-Talk
Some of my clients have become ensnared in a cycle of negative self-talk, either directed inward or projected outward. These internal accounts perpetuate sadness or a constant, joyless state. Such stories insidiously whisper to my clients that they are inherently flawed, that they are the cause of their own problems, or that the world is a relentlessly bleak place; these caustic words leave them feeling trapped.
However, there is often a faint, quieter voice within them that longs for change, whispering, "This is not who I am, not who I want to become." My goal is to equip these clients with tools to quiet the loud, critical voice and amplify their more hopeful, realistic inner voice.
Interpersonal Problems
Do you find relationships challenging? Some clients want to learn how to break the ice with people who interest them. They want to learn how to stand up for themselves. They want to learn how others view them, and they wish to strengthen how they see themselves. Sometimes, they want to grow healthy boundaries, perhaps because they guard their hearts too much, or because they absorb others’ emotions too readily. If feelings of loneliness weigh you down, there is a path forward.
