Untangling your relationships starts with understanding yourself.
If you spend a lot of time worrying about what others think or feel, replaying conversations, second-guessing yourself — or feeling exhausted from always holding things together — you’re not alone.
You might notice this in anxiety, self-doubt, or in relationships that leave you feeling responsible or quietly worn down.
This is a place to explore what’s going on for you - at your own pace.
Therapy in Rayleigh for anxiety, self-doubt & relationships.
Meet Amy
I’m Amy. I’m a therapist in Rayleigh (and online) who prefers trainers to clinical suits and honest talk to "perfect" solutions. I help women like you move out of the "shoulds" and back into themselves. I’ve been the person holding it all together, and I know how heavy that mask gets.
Therapy with me is down-to-earth, warm, and conversational. I believe in being real - no clinical coldness or sitting in awkward silence. We might laugh, we might swear, and we’ll definitely try to get honest about what’s going on.
Curious about my story and how I work?
Anxiety in relationships can be quiet but exhausting.
For a lot of people, anxiety isn’t panic attacks or constant worry, it’s the ongoing mental load of trying to get things right with other people.
It can look like overthinking conversations, feeling responsible for other people’s emotions, or quietly doubting yourself in relationships, work, or family life.
You might notice you’re always scanning for what’s needed next, replaying interactions in your head, or feeling tense even when things seem “fine” on the surface.
Whether you’re coming on your own or navigating things with a partner, these patterns don’t exist in isolation... they tend to show up in how we relate, communicate, and respond to one another.
