Walking on eggshells, exhausted making others happy, afraid to hurt or set them off by making your needs known? I specialize in narcissistic/borderline trauma and help you restore your sense of self lost after years of trying to appease a parent, partner, or a family member. If you are stuck in the cycle of people pleasing, ignoring being treated badly, hiding your true self, feeling anxious, confused, unfree, hopeless something is very wrong. Maybe your numerous attempts to improve your relationship backfired and you are to wondering if your loved one may have a personality disorder. Therapy is a safe place to talk about it.
Manipulation, blame shifting, gaslighting, invalidation, and betrayal from people we trust to love us is hard to grasp. I can help you understand what you’re up against, the defenses you may have developed in response to such treatment, and how to make changes to finally allow yourself to be who you really are, and leave life free of fear, guilt, and shame.
Toxic people and relationships destroy our mind, body and soul. We hope to find safety in placating them while sacrificing ourselves, but only dig ourselves deeper into the hole of pain and resentment. Letting the truth out and expanding the mind gives us power to change what is not serving us, build boundaries, embrace who we are and finally be free.
