You feel exhausted wearing multiple masks, being “too much” for some people in your life and “not enough” for others. You feel proud of what you have achieved but immediately guilty because you don’t want to come off as “full of yourself.” You get annoyed at the question “where are you from?” because the answer is complicated and it reminds you of the difficulty you are having coping with discrimination and other 'isms that are part of this new country. Everyone thinks that you "got it all together" even though you question how you fit into expectations from your parents and society. You are tired of hiding who you really are.
What if you didn't feel the pressure to explain yourself to everyone? Imagine: Not apologizing for who you are and your choices; feeling confident in managing conflict and not feeling afraid of disappointing others; your every move, opinion of yourself, and relationships no longer needing to be dictated by feeling not "good enough". Embracing being YOU.
Therapy with me means that I examine areas of your life that are important to you and that motivate you to take care of yourself even when you feel inadequate, like a failure or that you don’t “deserve it.” My practice is online only. Services are available to anyone who resides in Virginia or PSYPACT states. Schedule a free 15-minute consult today.
