Welcome to the podcast! Today I am delighted to be joined by Sharon Martin, LCSW. Sharon is a licensed psychotherapist, writer, speaker, and media contributor on emotional health and relationships. Her psychotherapy practice in San Jose, CA specialises in helping individuals overcome codependency and perfectionism, and learn to accept and love themselves.   Sharon started her career as a psychotherapist working with the neediest members of our community -- those struggling with addiction, mental illness, homelessness, legal and family problems.    With 20 years of experience counseling and studying human behavior and mindset, Sharon created a personal development website that provides  self-improvement tools using positive psychology, mindfulness, self-compassion, and healthy habits.   Full show notes available at - lourdesviado.com/womenindepth
