About

Why is it that we are so much harsher on ourselves than we are on others? Sometimes it’s as if our inner critic has a zero-tolerance policy for ourselves. Even when we’re hurting, our critic might jump in and say “You shouldn’t be feeling this way, suck it up.” It can be hard to manage our pain (or outright heal!) if our inner critic is ruthless and unrelenting. If it feels like your critic is beating you down, I’m here to help. Much of my experience has focused on helping adults who struggle with anxiety, depression, imposter syndrome, trauma, identity issues, and relationship difficulties.
