You’ve always been the one who keeps the peace—picking up the pieces, staying quiet, trying not to upset anyone. But lately, you’re feeling overwhelmed, resentful, or unsure of who you are outside of others' expectations. You know something needs to shift.
In therapy, you get to show up without needing to explain it all away. We’ll explore how early relationships shaped your patterns—and how to create new ones rooted in boundaries, self-trust, and real connection. You don’t have to keep shrinking to belong. If you’ve spent most of your life focused on keeping others comfortable, it can feel unfamiliar—
even scary—to focus on yourself. I work with folks navigating relationships, identity, and the pull to please at the expense of their own needs. Together, we’ll untangle where those patterns came from and help you move toward relationships that feel mutual, honest, and nourishing. You’re allowed to take up space.
