💛 I’M SO EXCITED TO FINALLY SHARE THIS WITH YOU…

Have you ever caught yourself thinking…

“I thought I was the only one…”

…who stayed too long.
…who begged someone to love me.
…who ignored the red flags.
…who cried myself to sleep.
…who felt embarrassed by how much I cared.

For so many years, I believed I was alone in my experiences.

Then I became a therapist.

And I discovered something incredible…

We are all carrying stories we think no one else could possibly understand.

That’s why I created I Thought I Was the Only One—an anonymous storytelling movement where people can safely share the moments they’ve hidden out of shame, fear, or embarrassment.

Because the moment we realize someone else has lived our story…

Shame begins to lose its power.

✨ You can:
🤍 Read anonymous stories.
🤍 Share your own anonymously.
🤍 Help someone else realize they’re not the only one.

Because no one should have to heal alone.

💛 Explore the stories or share yours here:

👇 Tell us in the comments: have you ever felt this way?
🔁 Share this — someone in your life needs to see it today.

"Although I recognize my worth, I am not sure other people in my life see it."

One of you said this recently, and it's been on my mind ever since.

Years ago, I spent so much time healing my trauma. I felt lighter, warmer, more open. But when I tried to share that with my brother, he said, "I don't see any difference. You seem the same to me." No applause. No party. No certificate. Just me, quietly wondering if any of it counted.

I wrote about that moment, and what it taught me about growth nobody claps for. If any part of this resonates, I'd love for you to read it.

Chasing clarity looks like: → Re-reading his texts for the real meaning. → Asking your group chat to decode him. → Waiting for him to “figure it out” so you can finally exhale.

But when someone wants you, you don’t have to translate them. Clarity isn’t a scavenger hunt — it’s the baseline. 🤍

You’ve read the books. Done the therapy. Rebuilt yourself a hundred times. And you’re still working for crumbs of certainty.

That’s not a you problem. It’s a pattern problem.

A woman who knows her worth doesn’t chase clarity. She becomes it.

🤍Comment “WORTH” for my free guide.

Have you ever met a genuinely good man — kind, consistent, available — and felt absolutely nothing? No spark. No chemistry. Just... the ick.

And then turned right back around to the one who made you feel crazy?

There's a reason for that. And it has nothing to do with him.

I wrote about it in my latest blog post and I think it might be one of the most important things I've shared.

So many women relate to Taylor Paul not because they’re “crazy” or weak, but because they know what it feels like to keep going back to someone who hurts them while hoping this time will be different.

Trauma bonds and emotionally unavailable relationships can function a lot like addiction. The highs, the validation, the chasing, the inconsistency - it activates the same reward pathways in the brain that keep people hooked to substances.

And underneath it is often a much deeper wound: abandonment, rejection, not feeling fully chosen or worthy of stable love.

Less shame. Less judgment. More honesty about how powerful these patterns can be. Healing isn’t about blaming women -it’s about understanding why we tolerate what hurts us and finally believing we deserve more. 🤍

You’ve done the talking.
You’ve tried to understand your patterns.
You’ve gained insight…

So why do you still feel stuck?

This is something I hear all the time in my work.

Talking can help you understand why you feel the way you do—but sometimes your brain needs help actually processing what happened so you can move forward.

That’s where EMDR comes in.

If you’ve been feeling stuck in anxiety, past experiences, or relationship patterns that keep repeating, this might be the missing piece.

I’m currently offering virtual EMDR therapy for clients in NY & CT.
