You're a sensitive, self-aware, and deeply feeling woman who quietly battles overwhelming emotions, feeling like something is wrong with you, and a critical internal voice that never shuts off. You overthink social interactions, scan for shifts in tone, and look for proof that people are mad at you. If someone hurts your feelings, you push it down and tell yourself you're being too sensitive and wonder if you did something wrong. You avoid conflict at all costs. You have a hard time shutting your brain off at night and struggle coping with daily life to the point where you feel tense and can't seem to catch your breath.
Imagine connecting with your emotions without being overwhelmed so they are guides to your true needs and wants. You begin to trust the relief that comes from knowing there's nothing wrong with you and that's just an old story from the past. It's possible heal parts of you that feel critical and unworthy and have safe, steady relationships.
I am warm, attuned, direct, and collaborative with my clients. If you want a genuine relationship with your therapist, to release childhood wounds, and build a kinder relationship with yourself, I'd be honored to support you. Schedule a free consultation via email or my website to get started.
