I’ve faced a lot of challenges in relationships over the years. Coming from a broken home, I was no stranger to the ups and downs that come with family dynamics. As the breadwinner and responsible one in most relationships, I often felt burdened by the weight of expectations and struggled with balancing my needs against the needs of others. I’ve also been through the painful experience of domestic violence, which taught me that abuse is never love, no matter how much I wanted it to be. Alongside these struggles, I’ve wrestled with anxiety and depression, which often made it harder to trust myself and others. I had to learn to say no and establish boundaries in order to protect my peace. Therapy played a huge role in helping me find my voice and rebuild my self-worth. Through these experiences, I’ve come to understand that healthy relationships, whether with family, friends, or partners, require respect, communication, and most importantly, self-respect. I’m here to offer support for anyone going through similar struggles—whether you’re navigating family dynamics, healing from an abusive relationship, or just learning how to set boundaries and prioritize yourself.
