How I Treat People-Pleasing

I will compassionately guide and empower you as we work together to understand the patterns that keep you stuck in the cycle of people-pleasing. My approach integrates Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and mindfulness-based techniques. These modalities are highly effective in helping you cultivate healthier boundaries and find balance.

In our work together, we will:

  • Recognize Your Patterns: Identify the underlying beliefs and fears that fuel your people-pleasing tendencies and explore how they impact your relationships and well-being.

  • Develop Assertiveness Skills: Learn practical, gentle ways to communicate your needs, set clear boundaries, and express your opinions confidently without guilt or anxiety.

  • Connect with Your Values: Discover what truly matters to you, separate from others' expectations. We'll clarify your core values and learn to take meaningful actions aligned with them, guiding your choices with inner wisdom rather than external pressure.

  • Embrace Discomfort & Choice: Practice observing uncomfortable emotions like guilt or anxiety that arise when setting boundaries, learning to respond with intention rather than reacting to please others.

Imagine a life where you can:

Through our work, clients often find they can:

  • Feel more in control over their life and choices.

  • Experience increased emotional and physical energy, no longer drained by constant giving.

  • Have the freedom to set healthy boundaries that protect their well-being.

  • Communicate authentically, reducing resentment and strengthening genuine connections.

  • Prioritize their own needs without feeling guilty.
