Untangle the mess, build confidence, and live with independence and peace.
Growing up with a bad mom can leave you feeling stuck, drained, or overwhelmed. If no one gave you the tools to care for yourself, how do you figure it out? Therapy gives you the space to reclaim your confidence, rewrite unhealthy messages, and build a life that works for you—on your terms.
Start Your Journey NowTherapy’s like cleaning out a messy junk drawer—ditching what you don’t need and organizing what’s left so it actually works. I'm very practical and I use a mix of tried-and-true techniques (like CBT) to help untangle your thoughts, process the chaos your mom left behind, and build a plan to feel less anxious and depressed. We’ll also focus on building awareness of the present because that’s where life happens, not in the past.
Boundaries are everything. We'll go over what they are, how to keep them (most get it wrong, even other therapists). Therapy is hard work, sometimes messy, but worth it. The goal? You leave feeling more in control and less like life is just happening to you.
Therapy for Toxic Mother Recovery:
I’m Chris Sims, a licensed therapist in both California and Pennsylvania. I specialize in helping young adults untangle the impacts of a toxic mother. My approach is open, freedom-oriented, and practical. I'll teach you the knowledge you need so you can build tools and lead a fulifilling life.
If you’re ready to feel confident, set boundaries, and move forward, let’s work together to rewrite your story.
- Want make amends with a toxic mother or continue to be in a dysfunctional family (good luck!).
- Solely interested in understanding her 'craziness' but not on how to self-improve and grow.
- Want a shoulder to cry on (there will likely be tears but it's not a focus; I like to teach and brainstorm for practical solutions).
- Are around 20-30 years old (ish) and independent.
- Mature, intelligent, and motivated to do the hard work required to be successful.
- Done with toxic or dysfunctional family; focused on self-improvement and growth.
