THERAPIST BASED IN GRAND RAPIDS, MICHIGAN
Find Joy, Confidence and Security
Therapy to manage overthinking and break free from anxiety spirals
Therapy to help you overcome anxiety and cultivate self-acceptance
My name is Katie VanderWeide, and if you feel anxious and overwhelmed, you are not alone. I meet with women everyday who…
struggle to “turn their brains off”
have a lot of love to give, but find themselves in one-sided relationship dynamics where they give a LOT more than they get
constantly second guess themselves
feel anxious about their romantic relationships
are very sensitive to the needs and emotions of others, and feel burnt out
get stuck in cycles of overthinking and worry, feeling worn out and STUCK
Imagine waking up in the morning feeling rested and at ease, going to sleep without your anxious thoughts keeping you awake. Feeling full of joy, ease, peace, and satisfaction.
Imagine feeling confident in your body, regardless of your shape or size.
Imagine feeling connected and at ease in your partnership, working together to cultivate the love of a lifetime.
This may feel far off, and everyone’s process is different. But as your therapist, there is nothing more exciting than to see my clients shine once they feel unburdened from their anxiety!
Therapy to Cultivate Inner Peace and Joy!
What is Internal Family Systems (IFS)?
Do you have a part of you that you wish you could disappear? Like the part of you that feels anxious, or is hyper critical? Internal Family Systems (IFS) is an approach that addresses these “parts”, or subpersonalities, as individuals that serve a purpose in your internal world. IFS suggests that there are no bad parts, and that the key to healing is through unburdening the parts that hold trauma, pain, and hurt from our childhoods, families, or culture.
