Sarah was a 42-year-old executive who looked incredibly put together on the outside but felt completely unraveled inside. After leaving a 7-year emotionally abusive marriage, she couldn't stop second-guessing herself — from work decisions to what to order for dinner. She struggled with anxiety, insomnia, and replaying conversations in her head, wondering if she was being “too sensitive.” Friends told her that she was strong, but she felt disconnected from who she used to be and secretly worried she would never fully trust herself again.

Monica, 38, was a successful small business owner who spent years walking on eggshells in a relationship marked by gaslighting and control. Since leaving, she felt emotionally exhausted and hypervigilant, constantly scanning for red flags in new connections. She understood trauma intellectually, but her body still felt unsafe. She was frustrated that traditional talk therapy hadn’t helped her move forward, and she grieved both the time she lost and the version of herself who once felt confident and carefree.

Elaine was 55, financially stable and deeply empathic, but quietly battled shame after decades in a covertly narcissistic partnership. She minimized her needs for so long that she no longer knew what she wanted. She struggled with boundaries, feared conflict, and felt isolated because few people understood the invisible damage of coercive control. More than anything, she wanted to feel grounded in herself again — to stop living in survival mode and finally believe that peace and connection were still possible.
