Too afraid to be alone…
Everything feels so heavy. I’m just overreacting, right?
I try to pick my battles carefully, only bringing up the important stuff. But whenever I do, I’m always the bad guy.
I’m always apologizing… always second-guessing myself.
We once had something so special. I see glimpses of the person I fell in love with, and that keeps me hoping he’ll come back.
I stay because the thought of being alone is too much to endure.
It’s one thing to think all that in your head…
It’s another to say it out loud to someone for the first time.
But here’s the thing: I’m not your mother, your pastor, or your boss.
My job as a therapist is to respect and honor your autonomy within your therapeutic relationship.
Therapy should feel safe and uncoerced.
Let’s build your confidence and independence.
For many, therapy is the first time they’ve truly focused on themselves.
As you progress in therapy, you’ll naturally start embracing activities and narratives that reinforce your independence and sense of self.
Our work will evolve and deepen over time, the goal being to empower you to know and understand who you are, what you want from life, and who you want in your life…
… rather than relying on others to make those decisions for you.
There’s no shame here.
You should be proud that you’re here on this page. It means you’re willing to take the next step toward living a better life.
I’m here to guide and support you but know that your autonomy will always be respected.
