Do you find it easy to show up for everyone else but incredibly difficult to show up for yourself? 🙋‍♀️For many women, saying "yes" to every demand from family, friends, and work feels like second nature. But constant people pleasing often comes at a massive personal cost to your own emotional energy.

When you constantly suppress your own needs to keep the peace, it leads to:
🍂 Deep seated resentment
🍂 Physical and emotional exhaustion
🍂 Feeling invisible in your own life Learning to set healthy boundaries isn't selfish. It is an essential act of self-preservation.

At The Yakira Centre, our counsellors work collaboratively with you to unpack where these habits come from and help you find your voice again. You don’t have to carry the weight of everyone else's expectations alone.
✨ Low-cost, confidential virtual and in-person slots are available for women aged 18+.🔗 Tap the link in our bio to take the first step toward reclaiming your peace.

Let’s talk honestly about therapy: often, the biggest barrier to getting support isn't a lack of desire ...it’s the price tag.

Self Care Isn't a Luxury

That is why we provide high-quality, low-cost counselling specifically for women aged 18 and over.

You don’t have to struggle alone, and you don’t have to break the bank to get help.
 
✨ Remote and in-person sessions are available.

I do hope that you have been enjoying the summer!

We had our first practitioner network meeting in July led by Carole Litchmore, who stimulated an exploration of ‘Race, projections and group dynamics’which enabled a discussion around race as an organising principle.

This was a great moment for us as practitioners to come together and learn and share.

We are currently planning our 2nd meet-up. For next month and look forward to seeing some of you there.

Hey… this is your reminder that you don’t have to earn your rest.
You’re allowed to pause. You’re allowed to breathe. You’re allowed to take a break without guilt. 🩷

If today feels heavy, do less. That still counts.

Save this for the days you forget
