Hi there!
Does this sound familiar?
From the outside, you look like this:
You're the one who handles it. The reliable friend, the high performer, the person others come to in a crisis. You show up early, follow through, and make it look easy. People assume you're fine, because you're so good at being fine.
On the inside, it can sound like this:
I don't know how to stop.
If I slow down, I'm not sure what I'll feel.
I've done the work. Why am I still like this?
I'm so tired of being the strong one.
If people knew how much I am they would leave.
Hallows End Collective offers LGBTQ+ affirming, trauma-informed psychotherapy in Orange County California, including EMDR, for adults navigating dissociation, identity complexity, depression, anxiety, and relational or attachment wounds.
I’m S (she/they) and my approach is psychodynamic and depth-oriented. We go beneath symptoms and coping strategies to understand the patterns underneath the patterns: why certain dynamics feel familiar even when they hurt, and why insight alone hasn't been enough to create real change.
Firm believer that healing doesn't require you to tone down your weird, your dark humor, or your love of the macabre to be taken seriously.
If you're tired of holding it together and ready to actually feel different, not just function differently, I'd love to talk. Hallows is witchy, we're queer, and we're currently accepting new clients and collaborators. Now in-network with Aetna and BlueCross BlueShield.
