Hi lady,
It’s exhausting being the person who holds it all together—smiling through stress and saying yes when you’d secretly rather say no. It isn’t uncommon that you wake up at 2am drowning in worry and guilt, replaying and scrutinizing conversations, wondering if you upset someone without realizing it.
I work with high-achieving women in their 30s and 40s who struggle with self-doubt, guilt, and the fear of being seen as “too much” or “not enough.” They’re the ones who always show up—who say yes to the group dinner after a brutal week, take on the extra project no one else wants, and send the “no worries at all!” text even when they’re hurt inside.
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. Whether at work, with friends, or in your closest relationships, you feel the pressure to be likeable, even if it leaves you drained and resentful. You worry that setting boundaries will make you seem selfish or unkind and you’re torn between being who others expect you to be and the person you truly want to become.
So what do we do about that?
Together, we unlearn the patterns that taught you love has to be earned and peace comes at the cost of your own needs. We make room for your voice, your limits, your authenticity - without losing the connection, respect, or love you’ve worked so hard to protect.
I’m here for you
People-pleasing isn’t just a habit—it’s a survival strategy, often tied to deep 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 begin practicing choices that align with who you actually are, not just who the world expects you to be.
We’ll explore how to set boundaries that feel manageable, communicate your needs without guilt, and build emotional resilience when discomfort inevitably shows up. Therapy becomes your space to reflect, process tough moments, and discover new ways to navigate relationships—so you feel more empowered and far 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, targeted questions to uncover what’s really going on underneath the people-pleasing and what you most need to heal, reclaim, and pivot. Together, we’ll define clear, meaningful goals—rooted in how you want to feel, what you want to believe about yourself, and what you want more of in your life.
It’s honest work. It’s deep work. But you won’t be doing it alone.
Here’s how:
