Women’s Empowerment Therapy in Los Angeles CA
Step into your most satisfying life
Especially as girls, we’re told to be nice, stay humble, be grateful for what we have, and not be 'too much' or 'extra.' Maybe you learned that being agreeable was safer than being authentic, or that taking up space made you selfish. Like so many others, you've probably mastered the art of shrinking yourself to make others comfortable, saying sorry for things that aren't your fault, and talking yourself out of opportunities before anyone else can reject you.
That inner critic has become your constant companion, whispering that you're not qualified enough, smart enough, or ready enough to go after what you really want. You might find yourself people-pleasing until you're exhausted, or playing small in your career while watching less qualified men get promoted. Perhaps you struggle to negotiate your worth, ask for raises, or even charge appropriately for your services.
Or, maybe that inner critic is focused on your body, constantly tearing it apart or comparing it to others. Your confidence waivers depending on whose opinion seems to matter most that day, and whether or not the jeans fit. It makes sense given the culture you grew up in, but it doesn’t mean you have to keep thinking and feeling this way.
You know you're capable of more, but something keeps holding you back from fully stepping into your power. You've been conditioned to believe that ambition in women is unflattering, that confidence is bitchy, and that your dreams should come second to everyone else's needs. That ends now.
It's time to start thriving. Together, we'll help you reclaim your power, pleasure, time, and peace. Book your consultation and let's get to work.

What will Empowerment therapy be like?
Women's empowerment therapy is about unlearning the conditioning that taught you to make yourself smaller and reclaiming the full expression of who you are. Using Internal Family Systems (IFS), the Empowerment Model, Feminist Therapy, and body-focused approaches, we'll work together to identify the beliefs and patterns that keep you stuck and help you build unshakeable confidence from the inside out.
We take a holistic approach to empowerment because a truly empowered woman shows up with confidence in all different areas of life. We'll address your relationship with money and financial independence, helping you overcome the discomfort around advocating for your worth. We'll work on body confidence that comes from within, not from external validation. You'll learn to set boundaries that protect your energy and time, and discover how to use your voice powerfully without apologizing for taking up space.
Together, we'll work on that inner critic and help them to transform into an inner champion who believes in your capabilities and supports your biggest dreams. You'll develop the courage to take calculated risks, the confidence to advocate for yourself, and the clarity to pursue the goals that truly matter to you.
You weren't put on this earth to play small, apologize for your existence, or dim your light so others feel comfortable. You were born to lead, create, innovate, and inspire. The world needs what you have to offer, but first you need to believe that yourself.
Stop waiting for permission to be powerful. Stop apologizing for your ambition. Stop shrinking to fit into spaces that were never designed for your full potential. You have everything within you to create the life, career, and impact you've been dreaming about. Your success doesn't take anything away from anyone else - it gives other women permission to rise too.
If you're ready to stop playing small, if you're tired of your fear making your decisions, if you want to finally step into the confident, empowered woman you've always been underneath - then now is your moment. Book a consultation today and let's start building the bold, unapologetic life you were always meant to live.
