You’ve done therapy before, but the same patterns keep showing up in relationships, work, and within yourself. You may second-guess, overextend, or shut down when overwhelmed. If trauma or emotional neglect shaped your early life, you might look “fine” but feel stuck in survival mode. Together, we focus on real, lasting change not just insight.
