Stop Losing Yourself in Relationships

Therapy for high-functioning adults navigating boundaries, identity, and self-abandonment, especially those with complex backgrounds.

You’ve spent much of your life being what others needed.

Now you’re not sure who you are.

On the outside, you may seem capable, thoughtful, and put together. But internally, you feel overwhelmed, disconnected, or unsure of yourself, especially in your relationships.

You might notice:

  • Difficulty setting boundaries without guilt

  • Feeling responsible for others’ emotions

  • Doubt about yourself and your decisions

  • Losing your sense of self in relationships

  • Suppressing your thoughts, feelings, and needs

These patterns don’t come out of nowhere.

Therapy can help you understand and heal patterns of self-abandonment so you can begin to:

  • Build a clearer sense of identity

  • Set boundaries with more confidence and less guilt

  • Feel more grounded in your emotions

  • Develop more balanced, authentic relationships

Our work will not be about “fixing” you.
It will be about understanding the patterns you’ve had to develop to adapt to difficult situations and creating space for something different.

Therapy that goes deeper than coping.

Approach

Therapy is not a one-size-fits-all. Together, we create a treatment plan tailored to you. I integrate several approaches to support both deeper emotional processing and practical change through meaningful work.

EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) helps process experiences that may still feel “stuck” in your system.

EMDR allows your brain and body to reprocess experiences so they feel less overwhelming and no longer shape your beliefs or your reactions.

Brainspotting is a focused, body-based approach that helps access and process emotions that can be difficult to reach through words alone.

It can be especially helpful for deeper patterns, including feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or disconnected, by working directly with how those experiences are held in the body.

Attachment and parts work focus on understanding relational patterns and internal experiences.

This includes:

  • Exploring how early relationships may have shaped your sense of self/beliefs

  • Noticing different “parts” of you (for example, the part that overthinks, the part that people-pleases, or the part that feels overwhelmed)

  • Building a more connected and compassionate relationship with yourself

What Working Together Can Feel Like

My approach is warm, thoughtful, and insight-oriented. I integrate trauma-informed care with practical tools so that therapy feels both supportive and meaningful.

You can expect a space where:

  • You determine how much you want to share

  • You will not be judged

  • You can give feedback

  • Change happens at a pace that feels sustainable
