Self-worth and confidence issues resolved by a Santa Rosa therapist

Are You Struggling with Self-Criticism or Injured Self-Esteem & Self-Confidence?

Is it sometimes difficult to stop the self-attacks that ambush your goals and undermine your welfare? Perhaps you find that you:

• Get stalled by overwhelm or anxiety?
• Dwell on mistakes, embarrassments or bad outcomes?
• Choose relationship partners who are not good for you?
• Have difficulty motivating yourself

When self-esteem is low, it is hard to bounce back after something bad has happened. We lose the ability to make good choices for ourselves. We behave in ways that take us further away from what we really want, resulting in painful relationships, financial problems, or other situations that feel frightening and lonely.

You can change the way you feel about yourself

Low self-esteem is found everywhere – regardless of our income level, ethnicity, gender, age, relationship status, profession or appearance.

Our self-esteem begins taking shape early in our lives and evolves throughout a lifetime. It is not set in stone; I like to think of it as a work in progress. Brain research is revealing that we are wired for growth, healing and self-repair. With support you can make use of this innate ability.

If your self esteem is depriving you of the joy, aliveness and purpose that you would like to experience in your life, I would like to help you. Recent discoveries in neuroscience reveal that the brain can be re-wired through emotional experience. This is such great news! Together we can work to change the beliefs and behaviors that hold you back from the freedom to:

• Make choices that truly serve you
• Make mistakes without self-rebuke or shame
• Express your thoughts, feelings, needs and wants
• Take action
• Feel comfortable in your skin …even in the midst of your imperfections and challenges

If you'd like to talk about therapy for these painful issues, I'd be happy to speak with you.
