THERAPY FOR WOMEN
And the day came when the risk to remain tight in the bud was more painful than the risk it took to blossom.
Welcome!
I see you. Women keeping busy with the stuff of life – family, work, friends. It often feels like too much. “We’re so busy,” we say out loud to friends. “I don’t know how long I can keep this up,” we say to ourselves. Does life ever slow down?
Our exhaustion and unhappiness surface from time to time. Thoughts like, “There’s got to be more to life than this,” and “something’s got to give” bubble up. We might exercise more, take up meditation. We might confide in our friends.
Or we might turn it back on ourselves saying, “Who am I to be unhappy? I have so much. I should be grateful.” And then we get swept back in to the pulse of life, caretaking, perfecting, doing.
Who are we?
As women, we define ourselves by our roles – we are partners and daughters and mothers and professionals. We exist in a world where the rules and our roles are constantly transforming around the needs of others. The task is profound, and the struggle is real. Part of our job is simply keeping up.
With all the demands placed upon us, it can feel like there isn’t enough time in the day to consider our own needs, desires and limits. When is the last time someone you cared about asked you about who you wanted to be or what you wanted out of life?
What if you took some time for yourself?
When our lives feel more like a slog and less like a life we’ve chosen, it’s time. When we feel lost inside our roles and separate from our deepest wisdom and strength, it’s time. When the inner voice inside wonders if there is more to life than this, let’s listen.
It’s time for your own transformation. Let’s make a lasting change.
Therapy can help.
We all need support in our lives – especially as we do the deep work of making lasting changes, healing from past hurts, and gaining insight into who we are and why we do the things we do.
Individual therapy can help us get clear about our priorities and our path – and help us move forward with life. We come to appreciate the lessons of childhood and let go of the baggage. We allow our grief and honor our losses. We gain insight and compassion for our perfectionism. It’s about embracing ourselves and defining our own unique path to happiness.
We can heal. We are worth it.
