Therapy for Women in Their 20s & 30s
This isn’t how you thought you’d feel right now.
Maybe you just graduated and, for the first time, there is no obvious next step. Your friends are accepting jobs, moving to new cities, or seemingly figuring out what they want to do with their lives while you’re still wondering where to start. Or maybe you got the job, moved away, and started the independent life you were so excited for, only to realize it feels nothing like you expected.
Maybe your friends are getting engaged while you’re still on dating apps, and that's leaving you feeling like you're on a completely different timeline than those around you. Or you got the promotion you worked toward and felt...nothing. Friendships that once felt effortless are changing. You reached an age you thought you’d have everything figured out by, and instead you have more questions than answers.
Do I actually like my job, or do I want an entirely different career? Do I stay in this city or move somewhere new? Do I want the apartment downtown or a quiet life on a farm? Should I be seriously looking for a partner right now? Do I want to settle down at all? Or do I take whatever money I have left and run off to Europe?
Maybe you can’t even point to one thing that’s wrong. Something just feels off.
You are allowed to not know.
Sound Familiar?
Things look fine from the outside, but internally you feel anxious, disconnected, or unsure of yourself.At work you find yourself sitting at your desk thinking, "Wait...this is what I’m supposed to do every day?" The career you worked toward leaves you feeling unfulfilled, anxious, or lost, and unsure of what you’d even want to do instead.Your friendships are changing, and you feel hurt, confused, or lonely when people you once talked to every day stop reaching out, or you realize you’re always the one making the plans.You’re exhausted by dating, and each disappointing date or relationship leaves you feeling more discouraged and a little more afraid that finding your person might not happen for you.You feel alone with thoughts like, “Am I behind? Am I doing enough? Am I doing too much? Who am I? What do I actually want?” You second-guess yourself constantly, searching for reassurance that you’re making the “right” choices.
How Can Therapy Help?
Together, we’ll explore the relationships, experiences, expectations, and patterns that have shaped how you see yourself and the life you believe you’re supposed to be living. We can begin separating what you genuinely want from what you think you "should" want, while building the self-trust to make choices without needing absolute certainty first.
The goal isn’t to figure out your entire life. It’s to know yourself well enough to trust yourself as you live it.
