Do you find yourself saying yes when you really want to say no? Do you often feel responsible for others’ happiness, avoid conflict at all costs, or struggle with guilt when prioritizing your own needs? People-pleasing can leave you feeling drained, resentful, and disconnected from your authentic self.
Therapy can help you uncover the deeper patterns behind people-pleasing—whether they stem from childhood dynamics, low self-worth, or a fear of rejection. Together, we’ll work on setting healthy boundaries, developing assertiveness, and building a stronger sense of self. You deserve relationships where your needs matter too.
Attachment-Based Therapy for People-Pleasing
People-pleasing often stems from early attachment experiences—times when love, approval, or safety felt conditional. You may have learned that keeping others happy was the best way to feel accepted, avoid conflict, or stay connected. Over time, this can lead to chronic self-sacrifice, difficulty setting boundaries, and a fear of rejection or disapproval.
In attachment-based therapy, we gently explore how your early relationships shaped the way you relate to others today. Together, we work to heal these patterns, strengthen your sense of self, and help you build more secure, balanced connections—where your needs and voice matter too.
This approach focuses on creating a safe, supportive relationship in therapy, where new relational experiences can foster trust, autonomy, and emotional resilience.
