A Little Healing LLC
Counselor/Therapist, LPC
I work with women who are used to being the person everyone else can count on but often struggle to give themselves that same care. You may find yourself saying yes when you really want to say no, feeling guilty when you set a boundary, overthinking whether someone is upset with you, or constantly putting other people's feelings and needs ahead of your own. Maybe you look like you have it all together on the outside, but inside you're exhausted, anxious, questioning yourself, or wondering when you lost touch with who you are and what you need. I help women struggling with people-pleasing, low self-esteem, boundaries, anxiety, depression, and trauma understand and heal the deeper wounds and patterns that keep them stuck. My goal isn't to teach you to stop caring about other people or become someone you're not. I want to help you learn how to care about others without continually abandoning yourself in the process. Together, we'll work toward helping you trust yourself, strengthen your voice, set healthier boundaries without being consumed by guilt, develop greater self-compassion, and reconnect with the parts of yourself that may have gotten lost while you were busy being who everyone else needed you to be.
