Getting to know Shylah Ridgway

You’re constantly procrastinating and feel dread about even the little things because it’s all too much. You feel like you are failing at everything, when, in fact, you’re killing it. You spend your time doing everything for everyone else, while neglecting yourself and never feeling like you have done enough. You worry that the plates in the air will fall, and everyone will realize you are incapable and incompetent. It feels like a hard life is your destiny because of the trauma in your past. You want to break the cycle of that generational trauma, but you don’t know where to start. Sound familiar? We are so often socialized to fit ourselves into roles and boxes that put other people first. But finding a true sense of belonging and identity is something different altogether. Belonging means being able to show up exactly as you are, with every piece of your identity being accepted and valued.

What should a new client know about working with you?

I offer online individual therapy for women and LGBTQIA folks to help you discover your most authentic self and be able to live and love whole-heartedly. The therapeutic process is one of collaboration and trust, trust in yourself, in me, and in the process itself. If you're looking for someone who does things a little differently, like you, you're in the right place.

What is your typical process for working with clients?

I'll give you that spiel about how we don't like everyone, so it's crazy that we expect to randomly select someone online and automatically like or click with them. So if we are not a good fit, no worries!
