Feeling weighed down & responsible for how everyone else around you feels is as exhausting as it is frustrating. You’re tired of the emotional burden of saying “yes” when you really mean “no” & of contorting yourself in whatever way will make others feel most comfortable. Now as you step into a new phase of life as a parent, you worry about setting boundaries with intrusive family members. Your stomach twists into knots and your chest tightens thinking about being bulldozed once again by other’s opinions of your choices. Even worse, you could be seen as "the bad guy" and as being "selfish" for speaking up for what you really need.
You want to trust yourself to know what is best for you and to feel confident to advocate on behalf of you and your child. No more self betrayal and self abandon - you want freedom to be seen, loved & respected just as you are. Using a relational body-mind approach, we can shift old adaptive patterns into more authentic connection to yourself & to others.
Being an exclusively online therapist, we have the convenience of connecting from anywhere in CA or TX while in the privacy and comfort of our own homes. Clients who work with me appreciate my grounded and down-to-earth presence, as well as my humanizing and non-pathologizing approach to healing.
