Therapy for Anxious Adults Struggling with People-Pleasing, Boundaries, and Overthinking
Individual Therapy in Burlington, Ontario & Online Across Ontario
Cierra Docouto, Registered Psychotherapist
Supporting Adults in Burlington & Online
I’m Cierra DoCouto, a Registered Psychotherapist offering individual therapy in Burlington, Ontario, and online across Ontario for adults navigating anxiety, self-esteem challenges, difficulty setting boundaries, and patterns of overthinking or people-pleasing.
Many clients come to therapy feeling overwhelmed, stuck in self-doubt, or exhausted from putting others first at the expense of their own needs.
In a supportive, collaborative, and non-judgmental space, we can explore these patterns, develop healthier coping strategies, and work toward building greater self-trust and emotional clarity. My approach is trauma-informed, practical, and tailored to meet you where you are.
Common Challenges I Help Adults Navigate
High-conflict or emotionally intense relationships
Recurring arguements or emotional volatility
Low self-esteem or self-doubt
Attachment challenges or difficulty connecting with others
Coping with breakups or relationship endings
Anxiety in relationships or fear of abandonment
Difficulty setting and maintaining boundaries
Anxiety, overthinking, or feeling stuck in patterns
Difficulty expressing needs or emotions
Patterns of codependency
Confusion about whether to stay or leave a relationship
Feeling stuck or unsure about next steps in life or relationships
In therapy, I can support you in exploring these patterns, developing strategies to manage emotional overwhelm, and help you feel more grounded, clear, and confident in your decisions and relationships.
