Are you having difficulty feeling secure in relationships? Do you overthink a lot? Maybe you’re someone who needs to talk right away when someone's unhappy and you won't feel better until things are solved. You get nervous when your partner asks for space. You feel responsible for making other people happy all the time, often at your own expense. You’re emotionally exhausted, stuck and ready for a change. You’re ready to feel more yourself in relationships and stop overthinking, overdoing and worrying. Most of all, you’re ready to live a more connected and fulfilling life, where your needs get met, too. I want to help you get there.
I specialize in working with adults who had an emotionally challenging childhood and who now struggle with anxiety or relationship satisfaction. Clients come to me looking for a therapist who knows the nuances of anxiety, sadness or overwhelm, who can help them feel "good enough", and who can help them learn what it's like to be seen, heard, and understood.
Asking for help can be hard, especially if you're the one who usually takes care of everyone else. A life where you’re the ‘main character’ is possible. You don’t have to keep fixing things so others can be comfortable. You don’t have to work on this alone. Visit my website for a free 15-minute consult call. I look forward to learning more about you.
