Beauty Burden:
Being beautiful carries certain burdens even though others may wrongly assume that you “have it all." The following represents just some of the challenges you may face:

* A love-hate relationship with the attention you get from men, that impacts your day-to-day quality of life

* A misguided expectation that you have no right to complain, to feel sad or angry, and that you can’t have bad days, or feel ugly at times

* An overwhelming fear of aging, related to the potential loss of a core part of your identity

* From childhood on, being overly sexualized by male figures, sometimes leading to abuse

I offer a safe and supportive environment to explore such emotional issues, free of the judgment that, because you are beautiful, you can't possibly experience any personal struggles.  Many of my patients are actresses and models who have reported a greater sense of well-being, self-worth and peacefulness as the result of doing this work.
