Therapy for Anxious, People-Pleasing Women in Denver, CO.
Feel like you are enough.
Dealing with people-pleasing, anxiety, self-doubt and perfectionism is incredibly challenging.
You are a high-achieving woman who:
Feels constantly exhausted from second-guessing, overthinking and people-pleasing.
Finds yourself trapped in endless anxiety spirals that feel impossible to get out of.
Feels guilty or selfish when you put your needs first.
Maybe you struggle to be yourself in relationships, worrying that others will reject the “real” you if you say what you really want.
You feel underwater with commitments, going from a busy workday to spending time with friends or family, not having a minute to yourself.
You say “yes” to things you don’t really want to do, and then feel resentful afterwards
You finds yourself re-hashing conversations in your head over and over again, beating yourself up for saying the “wrong” thing.
You struggle to turn your brain “off” at the end of the day, laying awake at night with racing thoughts of all you need to do.
You worry that standing up for yourself will ruin your relationships and leave you all alone.
Maybe the pressure to do everything “right” feels so paralyzing, that sometimes you struggle to do anything at all.
And you wish so badly you could just stop caring so much about what everyone else thinks, but find it so hard to actually do.
You are SO over feeling like this.
You’ve tried yoga, exercise, meditating, self-help books, journaling, and none of it on it’s own seems to create lasting change. Maybe you’ve even found yourself Googling things like “why can’t I turn my brain off?” or “how do I love myself more?”
Therapy for anxiety can help.
Hi, I’m Victoria.
I’m a therapist who helps high-achieving, anxious, people-pleasing women stop overthinking and learn how to put their needs first. I’ve been where you are, and I know how hard it can be to feel trapped in never-ending anxious thought patterns and controlled by limiting beliefs. I have helped so many women and mothers heal from anxiety, people-pleasing and perfectionism to find confidence and self-love. I also specialize in treating women with postpartum mental health and cultural identity issues.
This is my passion because I have seen the other side.
I know how the self-awareness and sensitivity that anxious women possess allow us to be most thoughtful friends, supportive partners and dependable colleagues. I will help you learn mindfulness and self-compassion tools to embrace your many strengths, safely explore your fears and learn to treat yourself with the same care and compassion you show everyone else in your life.
I help high-achieving, anxious, people-pleasing women so that you can:
Stop making decisions based on anxiety and fear
No longer feel guilty for setting boundaries or saying “no”
Spend less time worrying and more time living your life
Break free from perfectionism and treat yourself with compassion when you make mistakes
Live a life based on your own values, rather than those of society and everyone else around you
Stop overthinking and find mental clarity
Let go of limiting beliefs that are no longer serving you
Find confidence in yourself so that you no longer need validation from others to feel worthy
Connect to a sense of calm and peace in your day-to-day
Embrace all parts of yourself to find healing and self-compassion
The women who have worked with me have said things like:
-
"I'm finally able to make choices based on what I want, instead of focusing so much on everyone else."
-
"It really feels like a weight has been lifted. I look at how I would have responded to this situation a year ago, and I can see how much I've grown."
-
"The relationships I'm choosing now are everything I have always wanted, but never felt like it could be possible for me. My anxiety is no longer choosing who I surround myself with."
You are not alone, and it’s not your fault you feel so anxious or unworthy. Women in today’s world face so many pressures to wear every hat, do it all, and it is impossible to meet these standards. Healing is possible. You deserve to live a life that is meaningful, fulfilling, and connected to others. Take anxiety and self-doubt out of the driver’s seat.
You are enough.
It may feel like feeling overwhelmed and burnt-out is just a way of life. It doesn’t have to be.
You can find the courage to trust yourself and prioritize your own needs.
You can feel less resentful and more gratified in your relationships. You can let go of the inner critic and find a sense of inner peace.
If you are ready to invest in yourself, please reach out today. I am here to walk with you on your journey to self-love and empowerment. I can’t wait to accompany you.
