Authenticity ‣ Self-Worth ‣ Healthy Boundaries ‣

  • Do you find yourself saying "yes" when you want to say "no," yet the thought of setting boundaries (or even knowing what “boundaries” are) feels overwhelming?

  • Do you dream of speaking up with clarity and confidence, but self-doubt, guilt, and fear hold you back?

  • The echoes of past experiences may be holding you hostage.

  • If you are a partner, adult child, parent, or sibling of someone who struggles with addiction or mental illness, you may have trouble trusting your own instincts.

Sound familiar?

You’ve spent so much time caring (read: obsessing) about what they need that you’ve lost sight of what you need.

Are you asking too much?

Constantly walking on eggshells?

Hi, I’m Ayla Fleming

Do you want to gain clarity and strengthen your voice?

Whether you want to:

A. Stay with your partner

B. Breakup with your partner

C. Stay in touch with your family

D. Cut off from your family

It is still key in all these scenarios that you learn the emotional skills to feel justified in your boundaries and let go of the anxiety or sense of responsibility for other adults’ responses, actions, and behaviors.

Therapy with me is a collaborative journey where we build a strong foundation of trust and mutual respect, creating a safe and accepting space for your transformation.

I get it, because I have been there too.

Why choose
Ayla Fleming Psychotherapy?

I help women understand how these factors fuel a toxic cycle that keeps individuals and families stuck, and more importantly (!), how to feel grounded again:

  • Having a loved one struggling with addiction

  • Trauma bonding

  • Childhood abuse/neglect

  • Relationship addiction (Codependency)

  • Attachment issues

It can be deeply difficult to stop participating in old dynamics. It may even feel like you’re abandoning your loved ones (“Survivor’s Guilt”).

We only need one person in the system to change to have an impact.

Therapy can help us let go of guilt and shame.

Therapy can also help us learn to side-step previously automatic patterns such as irritable, anxious, traumatized, immature, or reactive behavior.

I cultivate a warm therapeutic relationship to help you achieve meaningful, lasting change within both yourself and your relationships.

****Regardless of whether others want to change.

As a micro-boutique practice, I offer personalized attention and care far beyond what larger clinics can provide.
