People Pleaser Recovery
People pleasers have a natural ability to attune to others. They can readily identify and tend to the needs of others in their lives. They are the peace keepers of the family, the "easy going" friends, the go-to employees. The folks who are much more comfortable saying "yes" than they are "no."
They get so good at meeting other's needs that they lose sight of their own. They can start to feel emotionally drained and resentful of all the energy they give to others, and yet they feel guilty for turning any of that energy inward.
If this sounds like you, you're in the right place. Your ability to attune and give to others is a beautiful gift - but only when it's in balance with your boundaries and caring for yourself in equal or greater measure. I give guidance with mindfulness and somatic skills to help you grow awareness of your own needs and boundaries. We'll work together to soothe the guilt and preserve your gifts of empathically caring for others while learning to give yourself the same level of care.
