Tiny Cottage Therapy offers individual therapy in California for adults who feel capable on the outside but overwhelmed on the inside. Many clients describe themselves as high-functioning professionals, caregivers, or people who have learned to prioritize everyone else— sometimes at the expense of their own emotional needs. Whether you’re navigating chronic stress, perfectionism, or cultural identity tension, individual therapy provides a dedicated space to slow down and reconnect with what truly matters.

Clients often come to therapy feeling worn out by your own inner drive, unsure how to set boundaries, or disconnected from a sense of self apart from obligations and expectations. You might find rest elusive, self-criticism relentless, and traditional “solutions” ineffective. Therapy gently holds these experiences, helping you understand where these patterns come from and how they sustain themselves over time.

In this work, we focus on strengthening emotional regulation, clarifying and practicing boundaries, and rebuilding trust with yourself to live with more ease and authenticity. Through reflective conversation, culturally attuned insight, and practical tools, your therapy journey becomes a path toward steadiness and boundary confidence.
