It takes courage to grow and become who you are…
I’ll help you find it.
Supportive Self-Discovery Therapy in Richmond, VA
Take a step closer to that person inside yourself.
The one you see in your mind’s eye.
You’re on the courageous journey to embrace wholeness, to embrace the person you were meant to be.
Have you had to hide parts of yourself to please others?
It’s easy to lose yourself along the way.
Things happened that remain unresolved. Things that made you feel differently about yourself.
It’s affecting your relationship with others.
Cracks are beginning to form.
It’s becoming harder and harder to keep these experiences inside you, to keep them at bay. Emotions well-up in you at unexpected times and overcome you.
You’ve followed the rules, been successful at what is expected of you. Still, something is missing…
Who you had to be served you well – maybe it was the way you survived childhood, a marriage, a career path?
We all have ways of avoiding discomfort.
But you’re tired of keeping it up.
It’s time to have the inside you reflect the outside you. It’s time for something different.
You’re ready to take that journey inward – to create congruence between your inner experience and outward expression.
Once we find our authentic voice, we interact more honestly with others.
It’s time to let go of the façade.
Imagine being fully, seamlessly who you are.
Imagine as a couple how wonderful it can be to interact with each other –
to speak from that place of vulnerability and truth without repercussion.
You can gain the confidence to grow as individuals and as a couple.
I can help you “unpack” what no longer serves you.
Welcome
I’m Margaret, and I am so glad you made it here. I am ready to be your guide on this healing journey.
I believe in the therapeutic alliance over a long-term, client-therapist relationship. Embracing wholeness is an inside job! I actively commit to meet you where you are emotionally.
With warmth, compassion and nonjudgment, I can help you reveal to the world the authentic you that’s been hiding.
Slowly, and with great empathy, I will facilitate while you unpack your story, the narrative that has served you, and help you rebuild one that more closely reflects who you are or strive to be.
If you and your partner are not communicating as you would like, I can help you rebuild the engagement and trust – to reveal yourself honestly to each other and restore that sense of engagement and clear communication of previous years.
Our time together will lead to self-exploration, self-compassion, personal growth, and insight – all elements of conscious living and embracing fully who you are.
How you lived, understood, or reacted to your world was shaped by your experiences.
Now you can choose freedom from those patterns or unhealthy coping skills and move toward wholeness and clarity.
Now you choose you.
Not the life others expected of you. It’s amazing how unhappy we can become to make others happy.
In our work together, I will help you thrive amidst life’s ups and down, not react to them. You will learn to express yourself from your heart.
By helping you develop practical tools and new insight, your mind will be balanced and at ease. Your relationships will flourish.
Learn to trust the inner guidance.
And create healthy boundaries with others.
Step into a life that you never thought possible to live – a life of satisfaction and joy!
It may be new and odd in the beginning; but in the end, you will be investing in yourself – and you’re worth it!
Change is possible. Won’t you start with a free phone consultation?
