YOU DON’T HAVE TO CARRY IT ALL ALONE
Therapy for women navigating difficult family relationships, boundaries, grief, and life transitions in Fort Worth, Texas.
Ellie Dierker, LCSW
let’s be honest:
If your relationships don't feel good, the rest of your life probably doesn't either.
You've spent a lot of time caring about other people. You've tried to be understanding, keep the peace, and do the right thing in your relationships. But lately, something isn't working.
maybe you’re…
Replaying conversations and wondering what went wrong
You overthink what you said, what they meant, and whether you should have handled things differently.
Feeling guilty for having needs of your own
Saying no feels selfish. Setting boundaries feels uncomfortable. And even when you know you can't keep doing things the way you have been, you worry about disappointing the people you love.
Grieving relationships that aren't what you hoped they'd be.
Maybe your relationship with an adult child has changed or your friendships no longer feel as close as they once did. You miss what you had or what you thought you'd have.
Wondering where you fit in your own life.
You've spent years being a mom, a partner, a daughter, or the person everyone depends on. But as life changes, you may be wondering who you are outside of the roles you've always held.
Hi, I'm Ellie.
I'm glad you're here.
I work with women who have spent years caring for others, trying to do the right thing, and holding relationships together. Maybe you're navigating a difficult relationship with a parent, experiencing distance from an adult child or grieving the future you once imagined. You may be feeling lost after years of putting everyone else first.
Relationships matter so much to us, which is why they can hurt so deeply when things go wrong. Therapy can be a place to make sense of these experiences, recognize patterns that may be keeping you stuck, and make room for your own needs.
I truly have the best job in the world, and I love walking alongside my clients as they work toward their goals. I offer encouragement, compassion, and gentle challenges to help you see things from a new perspective and begin making changes that feel meaningful to you.
If you're tired of overthinking every interaction, feeling guilty for saying no, or struggling with relationships that hurt, you don't have to figure it all out on your own. Therapy can help you navigate difficult relationships and find a way forward that feels right for you.
