At the root of all psychological and emotional distress, is the absence of/or lack of love, acceptance and belonging. When this need is not met, we consciously and subconsciously find other ways to fill the void, often through self-destructive behaviors and emotional self-loathing. The vast majority of people do not know how to love themselves or find value in who they are, especially when coming from backgrounds of abuse, addiction or abandonment. When a person understands their value, their self-worth, their reason for being, the psychological and emotional distress dissipates, and behaviors change.
I believe change is possible. I will help you discover your true value and identity. My approach to therapy is rooted in The Daring Way™ based in the research by Brené Brown, Ph.D, LCSW, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Biblical Principles.
I believe living an authentic life is true freedom & that everyone was created on purpose for a purpose. Why not give yourself permission to live your best life!
