Is This Therapy Right For You?

Many people come to therapy feeling confused, overwhelmed, or unsure how to describe what’s happening in their relationships.

You might not be sure what to call it—but you know something doesn’t feel right, and it’s affecting how you think, feel, and relate to others.

You Might Be Experiencing:

This may be a good fit if you:

  • Often second-guess your thoughts or feelings

  • Feel anxious or emotionally drained in close relationships

  • Find yourself overthinking conversations after they happen

  • Struggle to trust your own perceptions

  • Feel responsible for other people’s emotions

  • Feel stuck between staying, leaving, or doing nothing at all

You don’t need to have the “right words” for what you’re experiencing to begin therapy.

I work best with women who want to understand their relationship experiences—not just cope with symptoms—and are open to deeper insight and change over time.

Why This Feels So Confusing

When relationships feel emotionally intense or unclear, it’s common to:

  • lose confidence in your own judgment

  • adapt by people-pleasing or over-explaining

  • feel emotionally exhausted without knowing why

  • question whether your reactions are “too much” or “not enough”

These can often develop slowly over time, which is why they can feel hard to name.

How Therapy Helps

In our work together, we’ll focus on:

  • slowing things down so you can hear yourself more clearly

  • understanding how you feel in relationships without judgment

  • rebuilding trust in your internal experience

  • identifying needs, boundaries, and emotional responses

  • supporting clarity so you can make decisions that feel grounded

I won’t pressure you to make immediate changes or decisions.

Who This Therapy Helps

This therapy is for you if:

  • you feel unsure what kind of support you need

  • you’re considering therapy but want clarity first

  • you’re tired of overthinking whether you’re “overreacting”

  • you want a safe place to sort through confusing relational experiences

  • you’re not ready to label your experience—but want understanding

This Is Not A Good Fit If You Are:

  • In immediate crisis or danger (call 911 or 988)

  • Seeking couples therapy

  • Looking for short-term, surface-level solutions

  • Seeking medication management (I’m an LCSW, not a prescriber)

If you’re unsure, a brief consultation can help clarify fit.

Clients often come to me when they:

  • Feel overwhelmed but “should be able to handle it”

  • Have been misunderstood or minimized by others

  • Want a therapist who understands how you feel in relationships

  • Need a non-judgmental space to think clearly

  • Don’t want to be rushed into decisions
