Many people come to therapy believing they need to be “fixed” in order to deserve care.
That belief often comes from environments that taught shame instead of safety.

Therapy isn’t about correcting who you are.
It’s about supporting healing in a world that can be confusing, demanding, and yes, even harmful at times.

Anxiety and stress are often talked about like they’re the same thing — but they’re not.

Both can affect your body, your thoughts, and your energy.
But they don’t always come from the same place, and they don’t always need the same kind of support.

Understanding what you’re experiencing can be an important first step toward feeling more grounded and supported.
