Therapy for high-achieving women

Maybe your mind never feels quiet. You’re always replaying conversations in your head. You often anticipate what could go wrong. You second-guess your decisions. And you often feel physically anxious even when you know there’s no immediate threat.

Therapy can help you understand what your anxiety is trying to protect you from, while also giving you tools that will help you address the anxiety at the root.

Depression doesn’t always look like being unable to get out of bed. Sometimes it looks like going through the motions, feeling numb, losing motivation, withdrawing from people, feeling disconnected from yourself, or wondering why you aren’t happier when your life looks “fine” from the outside.

Together, we’ll make space for what you’re experiencing while exploring what may be contributing to the heaviness underneath it. Therapy can help you reconnect with your emotions, your needs, and the parts of yourself that may have gotten buried along the way.

Dating and relationships can bring up some of our deepest fears, insecurities, and old patterns.

Maybe you find yourself overthinking texts, questioning how someone feels about you, feeling anxious when there’s distance, getting attached quickly, pulling away when things start to feel vulnerable, or choosing people who aren’t fully available.

You may notice yourself people-pleasing, abandoning your own needs, second-guessing your intuition, or reacting strongly to situations that seem small on the surface.

And the most frustrating part is that you can see the pattern while it’s happening, but you still don’t know how to stop yourself from getting pulled into it.

In therapy, we’ll work with what’s underneath these reactions, so these experiences don’t have to carry the same emotional charge.

The goal is to help you feel more secure in yourself, trust your own needs and intuition, and experience dating and relationships from a more grounded, connected place.

Maybe you’re highly self-aware and capable, but still find yourself questioning whether you’re good enough.

You may over-accommodate other people, struggle to set boundaries, worry about disappointing someone, compare yourself constantly, or feel responsible for how everyone around you feels.

We can explore where these patterns began and what they have helped you protect yourself from.

EMDR Therapy can also help loosen deeply held beliefs such as my needs are too much, I have to keep people happy, or I have to be perfect to be accepted, so that you can begin relating to yourself and others from a stronger place of self-worth.

You may love your family and still find yourself deeply triggered by them.

Maybe you notice yourself becoming a younger version of yourself when you’re around them, feel responsible for their emotions, struggle with setting boundaries, carry anger or resentment towards them, or continue hoping that they will finally respond to you differently.

Therapy can help you understand these dynamics and engaging in EMDR Therapy can be especially helpful for processing painful memories and emotional experiences that continue to affect your relationships, self-worth, and reactions today.

Your 20s and 30s can bring up a lot of uncertainty.

You might be questioning your career, relationships, friendships, identity, where you live, whether you want children, or whether the life you’ve created actually feels like yours.

Sometimes these transitions bring up anxiety, grief, comparison, or the feeling that everyone else has figured something out that you haven’t.

Therapy can give you a place to slow down, hear yourself more clearly, work through the fears influencing your decisions, and separate what you genuinely want from what you’ve learned you “should” want.
