Therapy for Boundary Setting

Are you someone struggling with boundary setting?

Right now, you may be experiencing:

 

  • Difficulty saying “no” to requests, even when you feel overwhelmed or resentful
  • Feeling responsible for others’ feelings or problems, leading you to overextend yourself
  • Allowing others to intrude on your time, energy, or personal space without speaking up
  • Feeling taken advantage of, unappreciated, or resentful in your relationships
  • Fear of conflict, rejection, or disapproval if you assert your needs or limits
  • Uncertainty about what your own needs, limits, or values even are
  • Feeling burnt out, depleted, or emotionally exhausted from constantly giving
  • Alternating between being overly passive and suddenly becoming reactive or angry when your limits are pushed too far

You’re realizing that your difficulty with boundaries is getting in the way of your life:

  • Your relationships are often unbalanced, leaving you feeling drained or resentful
  • You neglect your own self-care, goals, and well-being because you prioritize others’ demands
  • You struggle to protect your time and energy, leading to burnout and stress
  • You feel powerless or victimized in interactions with others
  • Your inability to set limits damages your self-respect and confidence
  • You may enable unhealthy behaviors in others by not setting clear expectations

You’re wondering…

  • Why is it so hard for me to say “no” or express my needs?
  • Is it selfish to set boundaries?
  • How can I set limits without damaging my relationships or causing conflict?
  • What are healthy boundaries supposed to look like?
  • Could my difficulty with boundaries be related to my upbringing or past trauma?
  • Can I learn to be assertive and protect myself effectively?

You’re longing for…

  • The ability to say “no” confidently and respectfully when needed.
  • Clear, healthy boundaries that protect your time, energy, and emotional well-being.
  • Relationships based on mutual respect, where your needs are valued.
  • Reduced feelings of resentment, guilt, and burnout.
  • Increased self-respect and confidence in your ability to advocate for yourself.
  • A sense of empowerment and control over your own life.
