Does this sound like you?
You’re doing everything: juggling work, relationships, self-care, maybe even parenting. On the outside, it probably looks like you’re holding it all together. But inside your mind never really shuts off: you’re constantly overthinking, imagining worst-case scenarios, second guessing yourself, replaying every conversation, and pushing yourself to meet impossible standards.
And it’s not just in your head. You feel it in your body, too. The clenched jaw, tight shoulders, stomach aches, restlessness, and constant fatigue. You’ve tried staying busy. You’ve tried slowing down. You’ve done all the things that are supposed to help, but the pressure never really lets up.
Therapy is a space to zoom out and look at the big picture: what you truly want, what’s been getting in the way, and how to stop living by everyone else’s expectations. We’ll create lasting change that isn’t just focused on feeling better today, but also on how to build a life that’s enjoyable, sustainable, and truly yours.
