You don’t have to wait for everything to fall apart before asking for help.
Therapy is also for the “mostly okay but something’s off” seasons.
You deserve support before it’s a crisis.

Setting boundaries is not betrayal.
It’s an act of self-respect.
And yes, it might feel awkward at first—especially if you’ve spent years shrinking yourself to keep the peace.
But healing often begins with a quiet, steady “no.”

I wrote more about what healthy boundaries actually look like—and why they’re not selfish in my blog at May Tree Counseling.

If you’re neurodivergent and constantly exhausted…
It’s not because you’re failing at life.
It’s because life wasn’t built for your brain.
Therapy can help you unlearn the pressure to mask and relearn how to live on your own terms.

Therapy isn’t about fixing you.
It’s about coming back to yourself—slowly, gently, honestly.
I have a few open spots for summer.
If you’re ready, I’d be honored to walk with you.

Shame thrives in silence.
But it’s not your fault you carry it.
It often starts with unmet needs, misattuned caregivers, or painful relationships.
You are not too broken.
You are not beyond repair.
You are allowed to come home to yourself.

Trauma doesn’t always look like a big, obvious event.
It might show up as:
• Chronic gaslighting
• Feeling like you're too much *and* not enough
• Disconnecting from your needs just to survive

That’s trauma too.
And healing is possible, even if no one else saw the damage.

My office is quiet. Safe. Gentle.
If you’ve experienced emotional abuse, trauma, or chronic anxiety, you deserve a space where you don’t have to explain or justify your experience.
You can just be.
That’s where healing begins.

📚 Another great anxiety book: "Unwinding Anxiety" by Dr. Judson Brewer - a game-changer for anyone struggling with anxiety!

✨ Find it on our resources page: https://maytreecounseling.com/product/unwinding-anxiety/ ✨

This brilliant book reveals anxiety as a habit loop that can be systematically unwound using brain-based techniques. What I love most is how Dr. Brewer, a psychiatrist and neuroscientist with 20+ years of research, offers simple mindfulness hacks that don't require formal meditation.

I've recommended this to countless clients who report transformative results. Many appreciate the science-backed approach that explains WHY willpower alone often fails with anxiety. The clinical programs based on these methods have shown up to 63% reduction in anxiety for people with Generalized Anxiety Disorder.

If you're tired of anxiety controlling your life, this book provides both understanding and practical tools to break free from worry cycles.

About Lisa

Me

I went to church my entire life (minus two years in college when my body sat in a pew but my heart was a million miles away). As a result, my personality formed within the construct of righteousness and steeples. My story didn’t just happen in church–it is church.

When my mother died, I examined every part of my life and thought I might leave church. However, I did not. Church is all I know. I am drawn to it like a moth to the flame. I want to belong. I need to belong.

Unfortunately, I can’t unsee and I don’t know if I can live with what I’ve seen. What I do know is I need to tell the truth. I need to be honest about what I’ve seen. I need to have a voice.
