Protect your peace and build healthier relationships
Boundaries are the limits you set to protect your physical, emotional, and mental wellbeing. They define what you're comfortable with and how you allow others to treat you. Healthy boundaries aren't about pushing people away—they're about creating relationships where you can show up authentically.
Many people struggle with boundaries because they never learned to set them, or they were taught that having needs is selfish. Therapy helps you understand why boundaries feel difficult, develop skills to set them, and navigate the discomfort that often comes with change.
Boundary struggles show up in many ways. You might benefit from therapy if you're experiencing:
Saying yes when you want to say no, then feeling resentful
Feeling responsible for other people's emotions or problems
Guilt when you try to prioritize your own needs
Feeling drained, used, or taken advantage of
Difficulty in relationships with demanding or toxic people
Not knowing what you want or need in relationships

No! This is one of the biggest myths about boundaries. Setting boundaries is actually essential for healthy relationships. When you take care of your own needs, you show up as a better partner, friend, parent, and colleague. Boundaries prevent resentment and burnout.
Some people may push back, especially if they're used to you not having boundaries. This doesn't mean you're wrong—it means the boundary was needed. Therapy helps you handle pushback and stay firm even when it's uncomfortable.
Often, difficulty with boundaries stems from childhood experiences, family dynamics, or past relationships. You may have learned that having needs is wrong or that your job is to keep others happy. Therapy helps you understand and change these patterns.
