Therapy for Women

Growing up, what happened in your house was normal, but that wasn't normal. Some clients experienced very clear abuse and neglect, but for others, it was the emotional loneliness that created an impact. You couldn't stand up for yourself, no one stood up for you, and no one checked in on you. Your body remembers this high-conflict environment and any conflict now makes you feel like you feel so small and shaky again. I see you, and that wasn't okay. This loneliness follows you into adulthood and you deserve to finally leave that in the past and have meaningful, genuine connections with others.

The heaviness settles in your chest. Unable to take a deep breath. The daily anxiety is crushing and you desperately want it to stop but it’s hard to figure out what started it in the first place. Maybe you know what's lingering on your mind.. that big decision coming up, big conversation, potential confrontation, inner conflict... you know you need to make a decision or a change but every time you start to think about it your heart starts racing and the worst possible outcomes flash through your mind. This worlwind makes you feel stuck in the storm. Let us guide you through this tough season while finding ways to keep your anxiety at bay.

Big life changes can feel incredibly overwhelming. Whether you chose this change or it fell in your lap, you might feel like your drowning while trying to adjust. The new job, the scary move to a new place, the pressure of the promotion, starting your own business, the devastating break up. You just can't seem to find solid ground to keep yourself steady. If you’re not feeling like yourself and can’t catch a break, let us help you recenter.
