AFFIRMING AND COMPASSIONATE THERAPY
Virtual Therapy for adults in Maryland, DC, Virginia, and across the US
Does this sound like you?
To others, you come across as grounded and confident - people rely on you for support.
Although people trust you to be their first call in their moments of need, there is a part of you that wonders if others might dismiss or judge you if they were to see what you are carrying. You might be thinking, where do you fit into your relationships?
If so, you might be working harder for others than yourself, also known as “people pleasing.”
You wonder if you would be truly accepted by those you love if you were to reveal what’s been holding you down inside. You constantly question your decisions and lack self-assurance. Others don’t see the pain and fear that you carry, or notice your need to express your desires and set boundaries.
It’s the experience of being with others, yet being alone all at the same time. You have always shown up for everyone in your life, but who makes space for the tender and vulnerable parts of you?
Changing this pattern is hard because in service of yourself, you might have to do some letting go. It’s a transition that might require you to sift through some grief.
But on the other side of that work is a life where you get to feel more carefree and more yourself.
Change can be a scary process, but I promise, whatever you’ve got, I’ve got you.
At LMB Therapy, you are welcomed to a nurturing and secure environment where you can gain clarity in your life and create space for all aspects of your being to be embraced. The vulnerable and tender parts are often where connection and authenticity lie and it’s time to give them some space and allow yourself to feel whole. With my doctoral training as a generalist in clinical psychology, it’s my job to tailor an approach that centers on you, the different social-cultural parts of who you are, and what is going to work best to get you to the life you want to live.
