Compassionate women’s therapy in Merrick, NY
CREATING A SPACE FOR CONNECTION. COMMUNICATION. CLARITY. CHANGE.
DOES IT FEEL LIKE YOU’VE LOST YOURSELF AND YOUR SENSE OF DIRECTION?
On the outside, it looks like you have everything figured out: a beautiful life, a successful career, loving family and friends. Maybe people are even jealous of what you have. But what don’t they see? You’re always busy, always working to make sure every detail is taken care of and under control. Whether it’s for your kids, your partner, or your home, it never stops.
It feels like your work is never done. Or maybe, that was your life for a long time and suddenly…everything has changed. Perhaps your kids are grown and off to college. Maybe you lost your partner, went through a divorce, or received a devastating diagnosis. And now, you don’t know what to do with yourself.
THE PEOPLE AROUND YOU DON’T UNDERSTAND THE PRESSURE YOU’RE UNDER.
It’s on the outside—caring for everyone around you—and the inside, too—living up the expectations you have for yourself. Even though you are successful, it’s difficult to communicate your emotions and what you’re going through. Everyone seems to think you're handling it all well, which makes it even harder to let them in on how you really feel.
That you’re…
Exhausted and don’t know how to make things right
Hard on yourself for not being able to live up to the standards & expectations
Constantly thinking, “What’s wrong with me? Everyone else has it all together.”
Beating yourself up if you make even the smallest mistake
Having trouble making decisions because you second guess and doubt yourself all the time
You are fighting to keep your head above water, but you are exhausted.
EVEN THOUGH IT’S UNCOMFORTABLE TO ASK FOR HELP, YOU KNOW THINGS NEED TO CHANGE.
Hi, I’m Joan.
