You weren’t “too sensitive”, you were surviving in an environment that taught you to doubt yourself
Trauma-informed therapy for women who are used to coping, but no longer feel quite like themselves - navigating breakup recovery, burnout, menopause and the life transitions that change everything beneath the surface.
Does this sound like you?
-
You walk on eggshells, even when things seem "fine"
-
You feel like you're constantly in survival mode - functioning, but never quite settled
-
You've got so used to putting everyone else first that you've lost sight of what you actually want
-
Your body feels wired and tired at the same time - anxious, hypervigilant, exhausted
-
You question your memory, or doubt your own feelings
-
You feel invisible - like your needs stopped counting a long time ago
-
You're holding it together on the outside, while quietly falling apart on the inside
If you’re nodding along, your nervous system could be keeping you stuck in patterns that no longer serve you.
Therapy for women who've carried too much, for too long
I work with capable, high-functioning women who are navigating a life-changing shift, whether that's a relationship that left them doubting themselves, menopause and the way it reshapes the nervous system, an empty nest, a divorce, a career they've outgrown, or simply the growing sense that something in their life isn't working anymore
.
My approach is collaborative, trauma-informed and emotionally attuned. Whether you're just beginning to question a relationship or are years past it, we'll work at your pace, untangling old patterns of people-pleasing, perfectionism and self-doubt, and rebuilding a relationship with yourself that isn't built around managing everyone else.
​
Together, we'll work on rebuilding self-trust and self-worth, setting boundaries without guilt, quieting the inner critic, learning to rest and receive, and finding steady ground again - whatever the change that brought you here.
​
Sessions are available online or in-person, and I welcome all identities, relationship styles and backgrounds.
About Me
Hi, I'm Rebecca Vivash, an accredited counsellor, consultant and clinical supervisor.
​
I work with women who've spent too long feeling responsible for everything - whose needs were ignored in a relationship, dismissed in a family, or lost somewhere between caregiving, career and midlife change.
Women who are only just starting to wonder, "What if it wasn't me? What if it's my turn now?"
​
I know how disorienting it can be to unravel the threads of emotional manipulation, and how unsettling it is to hit a life stage - menopause, an empty nest, a divorce - that makes you question who you are. I also know how deeply life can change when you begin to trust yourself again.
