You're tired of overthinking every decision and struggling to name what you're actually feeling. You've spent so long managing other people's emotions and keeping the peace that you've lost touch with yourself. Maybe you're navigating complex family dynamics, religious deconstruction, or feeling caught between cultures. Depression, shame, and people-pleasing have become your default. You want to build a life that feels authentic and peaceful. One where you can show up fully without constantly performing. You're ready to heal, not just cope.
I specialize in healing from complex family dynamics, religious trauma, and cultural disconnection. Using Internal Family Systems (IFS) and somatic therapy, I help you reconnect with your body and sense of self. We'll work with the parts of you that protect and carry pain, processing emotions and regulating your nervous system to cultivate embodied presence
I know what it's like to feel stuck between versions of yourself. You don't have to keep doing this alone. Therapy is where we pause, reconnect, and build the life you actually want. You can bring all of yourself here. If you're ready to stop performing and start living authentically, I'd be honored to walk with you. Reach out when you're ready.
Take the first step to help. Abby Endashaw now

I work with clients who are fighting to live a more whole life - in romantic relationships, work stress, or just in their own minds. Most of my clients come in feeling burdened, disconnected, or uncertain and leave feeling more grounded with clarity, calm, and courage they couldn't access before.
