You have always been "the responsible one." You keep pushing yourself to excellence. But in your relationships? You make yourself smaller, minimizing your needs in the hope that maybe you won't be "too much" for everyone else. But no matter how many hurdles you cross and how many achievements you make, that voice in your head keeps going. Shaming you. Criticizing you. You never feel "good enough." When will you finally be happy and content?
You've done incredible things that have brought external success. But internally, you feel empty, undeserving, othered. In therapy with me, those unmet needs can finally be seen and valued. Rather than staying stuck in obligatory giving to others, you can learn to nurture yourself, heal harmful patterns and find the peace and confidence you long for.
As a daughter of Bosnian immigrants, I value weaving your past into your present to become your true, authentic self. Therapy with me isn't another space you have to pretend or be "on." I welcome every part of you, even the messy, scary, and vulnerable parts that have felt hard to unravel before. Get in touch to schedule a consult call with me today!
