MAKEDA BOSTWICK

Transformational Therapist • Guilt Recovery • Boundary Setting Support

Do you catch yourself saying “yes” when every part of you wants to say “no”? Does chronic caretaking leave you drained or worried that loved ones might leave if you stop holding everything together? You’re not alone -- many high‑empathy people feel stretched thin between pleasing others and honoring themselves. I specialize in helping clients move from over‑giving and self‑doubt to grounded confidence and healthier relationships.

My Counseling Philosophy
I’m a licensed therapist who works with individuals seeking practical tools, deeper self-understanding, and meaningful change in their lives. My approach is integrative, drawing from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and Schema Therapy.

Areas of Focus

  • CBT helps us identify and challenge unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors so you can develop healthier, more balanced ways of thinking and coping.
  • ACT teaches skills for being present, accepting difficult emotions, and moving toward what matters most to you, even when life feels overwhelming.
  • Schema Therapy looks at deeper life patterns and unmet emotional needs, helping you break free from cycles that may have started in childhood but continue to affect relationships, self-esteem, and overall well-being today.

What Working Together Looks Like

In our work together, we’ll focus on building practical coping tools for daily challenges, developing psychological flexibility to handle stress more effectively, and fostering a strong Healthy Adult mode to create lasting change. My goal is to provide a compassionate, non-judgmental space where you feel understood while also being supported in making real progress toward your goals.
