Reclaiming Your Needs: People-Pleasing Therapy with Rose
Do you find yourself saying yes when you actually mean no? Do you put other people first and forget about yourself? I know how hard that feels. I am Rose. I help people who want to stop pleasing others. My work is kind and gentle. I will sit with you and help you learn how to care for yourself and still keep close relationships.
About Me
I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist. My license number is LMFT126181. I listen carefully. I help people who think a lot and feel very deeply. I use simple ideas from psychodynamic therapy and mindfulness. I make a safe place for you to talk. I offer both in-person and virtual sessions so you can pick what feels best.
How I Help
I help you find the reasons you please people. I look at your past and your feelings. I teach small skills you can use every day. I show you how to say no in a kind way. I help you set gentle limits without guilt. I teach calm breathing and quick tools to lower worry.
I give simple tasks to try at home. I help you practice new ways of talking and acting. I match my pace to yours. I celebrate small wins and help with hard steps.
What To Expect
At the first session, I will listen to your story. I will ask about your life, your worries, and what you hope for. I will make small, clear goals with you. At each visit, I will check how things are going. I will give one or two short exercises to try between sessions. These are easy and quick.
Sessions are private and caring. You only share what you want. I will not judge. I will help you learn and grow slowly.
Who This Is For
This work is for you if you:
- Often put others first and feel tired or sad.
- Worry that saying no will hurt a friend or family member.
- Feel lonely because you hide your needs.
- Want to feel more sure of yourself.
- Are ready to try small changes.
Benefits You May Notice
After some time, you may:
- Feel safer to say what you need.
- Have more energy for things you like.
- Feel less worried about what others think.
- Build fair and kind friendships.
- Trust yourself more.
These changes take time. I help you one step at a time.
Session Info
I hold sessions in person and online. I will explain how to book when you reach out. Each session is a calm and private space. If you choose online sessions, I can help you pick a quiet spot and set things up.
A Gentle Start
You do not need to have all the answers. People-pleasing started for a reason. It helped you at some time. Now you can learn new ways to keep yourself safe and feel seen. I will be with you as you take small steps.
If you want, I can send a short list of easy things to try before our first session. These are small practices to help you notice your needs and say them kindly.
If you are ready, contact me to book a first visit. I will meet you with warmth and respect. Together, I will help you find your voice and care for yourself without losing your close ties.
