Therapy for Women Healing Childhood Wounds
Let your inner child out to play
Online & In-person counseling in Atlanta and throughout Georgia
Is the relationship with your parents just not what you thought it would be at this age?
Are you still playing old roles in your family like the referee, peacekeeper, or even the family therapist?
Do you want to change or shift the relationship with your parents, but you don’t know how? Or maybe you just want to focus on you for a little, but that always seems like a huge ask.
Do you get anxious or “worked up” whenever you have to tell your parents something that you aren’t sure they’ll be happy with, despite having kids and a home of your own?
Are you the adult child of an emotionally immature parent?
If you resonate with any of the following:
You have people-pleasing tendencies
You still make attempts to make your parents happy, even as an adult
You have a hard time setting boundaries or saying no
You struggle to make time for yourself or self-care
You’re always worried about everyone else around you
You tend to be the person the family turns to in arguments
Visits with family exhaust you, make you on edge, or anxious
You tend to take on a leadership role quickly
You may be an adult child of emotionally immature parents.
First and foremost, we want to hear about your experience. The people who likely need to hear it the most haven’t taken the time to hear you out, and we want to. We work with you to identify negative patterns within early family life and sit with how those affected you as a child. We challenge your modern-day thoughts, feelings, and emotions that are not kind to you and work with them to better understand yourself, your needs, and your boundaries. We can help you invite that inner child out to play that never got to when it was their turn.
Our approaches to therapy for women healing childhood wounds:
I have questions about therapy for women looking to heal childhood wounds:
You may find yourself unhappy with your current relationship with your parents, but don’t feel comfortable calling them bad people. They aren’t bad people, they just missed the mark more times than not. You may feel anxiety around tough conversations, difficulty setting boundaries, over extending yourself to make other people happy, and work hard to avoid your parents being upset despite you being a full grown adult.
What are the signs I might need this kind of therapy?
We take a “bottom-up” approach. What that means is we reamin very curious on how your body feels saying certain things in session, the quiet beliefs that we logically know aren’t right but we still can’t shake it. We want to know the youngest part of you that still doesn’t feel safe or cared for. Additionally, we are never going to make part of your treatment “just telling your parents how you feel.” Obviously, if you ever get to a point of wanting to have that converation, we are going to 100% support you. However, if talking it out would have solved anything, you wouldn’t be looking at this therapy page right now.
What makes The Cozy Couch Counseling approach different from other therapy practices?
We can’t write a prescription on the timeline. We wish we could. However, we have noticed that most people feel relief and shifts within 6-9 months of consistent meetings.
How long does it take until I start to feel better?
Do you offer in-person or virtual sessions?
We offer both! We have in-person offices at 6667 Vernon Woods Dr., Atlanta, GA 30328. We also offer HIPAA-compliant tele-health video calls.
