You spend so much time taking care of everyone else. Who takes care of you?
Maybe you're the person everyone counts on. You keep up with the appointments, remember the details, and try to make sure everything gets done. But even when you're doing your best, your mind may be running through everything that could go wrong. Maybe you replay conversations or obsess over all of the things you still need to do.
You might look like you have it all together on the outside while feeling overwhelmed, exhausted, or unsure of yourself on the inside.
You don't have to keep carrying it all on your own. Therapy is the place to set some of that down.
What brings women to therapy?
People often reach out when things have been building up for a while.
-
Feeling overwhelmed even when life looks "fine."
-
Worry that does not fully turn off
-
Mental load that feels constant
-
Self-criticism or pressure to keep it all together
-
Feeling disconnected from yourself and your loved ones
-
Relational difficulties
-
Exhaustion that rest does not fix. They think it's burnout.
It is often less about one moment and more about realizing that you have been carrying too much for too long.
What is therapy like with me?
Sessions with me are steady, supportive, and unhurried.
We slow things down enough to understand what's happening beneath the surface: the patterns, pressure, and expectations that have shaped how you feel.
Sometimes we focus on worry and overwhelm. Sometimes we explore self-criticism and the pressure you put on yourself. Other times, it's about learning that you don't have to carry everything alone.
You don't have to have the right words or know exactly where to start. We can figure it out together.
The goal is not to change who you are, but to help you feel like yourself again.
Who is therapy for?
This tends to fit best if you are:
-
You spend a lot of time thinking about your experiences and trying to understand yourself, but still feel stuck in familiar patterns.
-
Carrying a lot internally
-
Wanting more ease and self-compassion
-
Tired of pushing through alone
My approach may not be the best fit if you're looking for highly structured, skills-based coaching or immediate crisis support.
If this feels familiar, you don't have to sort it out alone. You are welcome to reach out to schedule a free consultation. We'll talk briefly about what you are looking for and see if it feels like a good fit. There is no pressure to have everything figured out before you come in.
