Hi lady,

You’re easygoing and accommodating, and while it’s good to be thoughtful and agreeable, it often comes at the cost of denying your own needs.

You say “yes” when you want to say “no” and avoid conflict at all costs, saying “it’s fine” when it really isn’t, because the thought of upsetting someone feels unbearable. Whether at work, with friends, or in relationships, you feel the pressure to always be agreeable, even if it leaves you drained and resentful.

You worry that setting boundaries will make you seem selfish or unkind, leaving you torn between being who others expect you to be and the person you truly want to become. Asking for what you need feels uncomfortable, even risky, and deep down, you wonder: “Will anyone really respect what I want?”

I’m here for you

People-pleasing isn’t just a habit—it’s tied to fears of rejection, failure, or not being enough. In therapy, we’ll uncover the beliefs that keep you saying “yes” when you want to say “no” and explore how to make choices that align with who you truly are.

We’ll practice setting boundaries that feel manageable and explore ways to communicate your needs without guilt. Therapy is a space to reflect, process tough moments, and discover new ways to navigate relationships—helping you feel more empowered and less depleted.

How I can help

You may have worked with other therapists before—ones who listened well but didn’t help you move forward. That’s not what happens here.

From our very first session, I’ll ask thoughtful questions to uncover why you’re here and what you need. Together, we’ll develop actionable goals that align with what you yearn to feel, believe, and do more of. It’s that simple.

Therapy isn’t just about talking—it’s about creating meaningful change. Some days, we might dive into the big things you thought you weren’t ready to face. Other days, we might unpack the offhand comment from a friend that left you spiraling. You’ll guide the conversation, and I’ll help keep us on track, ensuring our work is always aligned with your goals.
