Do you tend to put others' needs before your own? Struggle to speak up for yourself in your relationships? If so, you may have an overactive “people pleasing” part. You're willing to go above and beyond for others, but self-care feels foreign. You hide your vulnerability to stay strong for others and feel uncomfortable reaching out for help. Deep down, you struggle with self-esteem, and tend to feel inadequate, despite having a lot to be proud of. You just want people to like you, but you feel you have to earn it. You yearn to feel unconditionally accepted and valued, and to feel entitled to self-advocacy and healthy boundaries.
As an Emotion Focused Therapist, I can help you break free from people-pleasing and start prioritizing your own needs. Together, we'll create a new relationship for your healing, one that centers you. I’ll help you reconnect deeply to your own experience so that you can learn how to best support yourself, and gain clarity about what you need from others.
If you're ready to take the first step towards a more authentic, connected life, book a no-cost video consultation with me today at portal.owlpractice.ca/aviva/booking. Let's work together to help you find your voice and learn to please yourself too.
