From Approval to Authenticity: Healing the Urge to Please Everyone
It feels good to be liked, needed, and appreciated. But when your desire to make others happy consistently comes at the cost of your own needs, values, or emotional well-being, you may be stuck in the cycle of people-pleasing. At Love Story Therapy, we help individuals recognize and shift this self-sacrificing behavior so they can create more honest, balanced, and fulfilling relationships, starting with themselves.
