Healing for women who are last on the list

______

EMDR Intensives for women who are trapped in a caregiving role and want to learn how to
set boundaries and put themselves first.

Is this you?

 
You say "yes" to things before even contemplating whether you want to or not.
 
You are you exhausted mentally and physically but saying "no" is painfully hard.
 
You often feel like you don't have a right to put your needs ahead of someone else's problems.
 

You deserve to have a choice!

I work with women to help them move from caregiving as an automatic reflex to a choice.  A decision that includes your own well being.  Together we look at the function of the caretaking role in your childhood and heal the experiences that contributed to it.

How do you know your caregiving is a problem?  Here are some common issues over functioning caregivers face:
 
Depression, sadness and tearfulness
 
Exhaustion and difficulty sleeping
 
Stress related illnesses such as migraines, digestive disorders, autoimmune disorders and more
 
Anxiety when people are emotionally dysregulated around you
 
Fear of anger
 
Feeling resentful in relationships
 
Angry outbursts that seems to come from "out of nowhere" and seem inconsistent with your personality
 
Difficulty with making decisions or determining your own likes/dislikes and feeling inauthentic
 

 

You don't have to be responsible for other peoples' anxiety.

 

Over functioning through caretaking may be a coping strategy from childhood.  It can be a way for a child to maintain control over her environment by managing other people's moods and dysregulation.  It starts as a way to manage someone else's anxiety but ends up being a strategy to manage your anxiety.

Have you been told you are intuitive, empathic or "too" sensitive?  
Caregivers tend to feel other's pain and suffering so deeply it hurts.  They...

 
Are highly attuned to the emotions of the people around them.
 
Take on other people's problems so the person doesn't have to experience the pain or suffering.
 
May become easily flooded with emotions or body sensations that don't feel like their own.

 It's a superpower!

It's common for caregivers to be highly intuitive / empathic / highly sensitive.  I believe this is your superpower but one you were never taught how to use.  Together we explore the ways you can set boundaries to protect your energy in order to use your power for good!
