Just ME: The Way I AM and the Way I AM NOT ...

Maybe you’ve lost yourself in the process of responding to the demands of family, career, or societal expectations.  We work with you to create a world where you matter ...

• "Have you ever longed for just ten uninterrupted minutes to yourself, wishing the world could pause just long enough for you to catch a breath?"
• "Have you ever juggled between work deadlines and your family's events or competing needs, wondering if the dream of relaxing or connecting at home and achieving career success was too much to ask for?"
• "Have you ever felt the weight of unending errands, missed dinners, and the desire to be the 'perfect sister/mom/friend' - all while trying to hold onto your own identity?"
• "Have you ever craved recognition, not for the milestone achievements, but for the routine, countless unseen sacrifices and tasks you manage behind the scenes?"
• "Have you ever felt a mix of relief and loneliness,  yearning for a simple 'How are you?' and 'I love you' and hoping no new emergencies need your attention?

We help  you learn to:

• Get the Support and Understanding you crave rather than judgment or unsolicited advice.
• Carve out some well-deserved time for you—for relaxation, self-care, pursuing hobbies, or just uninterrupted sleep.
• Prioritize your own hopes and dreams along with family or friends needs and commitments.
• Identify ways for you to keep connected with personal friends without feeling guilty.
• Share tasks and errands so that the load doesn’t completely fall on you. 
• Feel acknowledged for your roles as supporter, caretaker and provider - get some hugs.
• Carve out time for Healthy Relationships: Genuine connections built on mutual respect, understanding, and trust.
• Practice exploring and speaking up for what you want not just what you can "Fit-In!"
