Self Love and Self Care are important for every human, especially a human that cares for another human.
Say this Affirmation: When I choose to have faith in myself as a caregiver I AM CHOOSING to care for myself too.
Our Therapist
THERAPIST, SPECIALIZING IN CAREGIVING
Kelsie Scott, MSW, LCSW
I’m a licensed clinical social worker and therapist in Atlanta, GA. I’m most passionate about empowering caregivers who are often overwhelmed and feel alone in their caregiving journey.
I want you to know that when caregiving starts to feel stressful and burdensome; there is no shame in exploring those feelings of guilt, shame, confusion, fearfulness, hopelessness, and or inadequacy.
Caregiving is a journey. You didn’t plan on becoming a caregiver; but you saw the need, committed to your loved one and the process. That in itself deserves a gracious thank you, so THANK YOU…
And then there are those days that bring you to your knees in prayer and you choose to draw from gratitude. Now say it with me - I’m thankful for the opportunity to be a caregiver because I get too!
It’s by your humanity in this life that you are in an ever ongoing process of development and change including your sense of who you are as a caregiver.
I want to help you shift your perspective to see caregiving as an ever changing heroic effort - as a sign of growth and “work in progress.”
