People-Pleasing & Boundary Setting
You can be kind and still say no.
You show up for everyone, but somewhere along the way, you lost sight of your own needs. You say yes when you want to say no. You try to avoid conflict, keep the peace, and make sure everyone else is okay... even if it costs you your energy, your voice, or your sense of self.
If this sounds familiar, you're not alone and there's nothing wrong with you. People-pleasing is often a learned survival strategy, shaped by early relationships and messages about what it means to be “good,” “lovable,” or “safe.”
In therapy, we’ll gently explore where these patterns come from and how they’ve protected you and we’ll work toward a different way of being. One where you can speak up, set boundaries, and stay connected to yourself without guilt or fear.
Saying no without apology
Letting go of guilt when you choose yourself
Setting boundaries that honor your values
Reclaiming your time, voice, and emotional space
It’s possible to care for others without abandoning yourself. If this speaks to you, we’d be honored to support you along the way.
If you're ready to begin this work together, the next step is easy! We invite you to reach out for a free consultation with Becca or Meredith.
This work is about:
Becca is collaborative and gentle, unless you need her not to be. Her number one goal is to ensure your trust and safety as you work together.
Meredith provides warmth, honesty, and safe place for you to be yourself. More than anything, she hopes to encourage you to practice self-compassion, even when life feels really hard.
