Are you the go-to person for everyone’s problems but feel like you're carrying the weight of the world alone? Perhaps you were called an “old soul” when you were younger, a reflection of your deep empathy and insight, yet this strength has also left you feeling isolated and invisible when it comes to your own needs. Throughout your life, you have found yourself striving for perfection, feeling the weight of expectation, and grappling with anxiety that can feel overwhelming. The independent and reliable mini adult at age 10 has become an exhausted and lonely woman in her late 20’s or early 30’s who usually suffers in silence.

If you’re struggling to voice your own desires and are feeling unsure about how to prioritize yourself, I can help. Together, we can explore the roots of your perfectionism and anxiety, uncover the impact of trauma, develop strategies for self-compassion and assertiveness, and help you learn to take up space and express your needs without guilt.

The story you have been telling yourself is, “If I can be who everyone needs me to be, I will finally feel worthy of their love.” But you and I both know this story has been hindering you, not helping you. This is where our work together begins! Email me to schedule a free 15 minute consultation or contact me on my website: www.ashlynwilliamstherapy.com.

Types of Therapy

Feminist
Narrative
Person-Centered
Trauma Focused

I often use a blend of Person-Centered Therapy and Narrative Therapy in my therapeutic work. Narrative Therapy focuses on the stories we are told about ourselves and how that influences our beliefs about ourselves. Person-Centered Therapy focuses on creating a non-judgmental and accepting environment for clients to see themselves as they truly are, which is the first step of change.
