You’re Not Broken: Releasing Shame and Reclaiming Your Story

Shame can be one of the heaviest weights to carry. It whispers that you’re not enough, that you’re unlovable, or that you should hide parts of yourself to stay safe. Over time, it shapes how we see ourselves and what we believe we deserve.

In therapy, we can hold those stories up to the light and see them for what they are—protective patterns you learned to survive, not truths about your worth. Through de-shaming work, you learn to meet yourself with compassion and curiosity instead of criticism.

This isn’t about perfection—it’s about coming home to yourself. Reclaiming your story means recognizing that you are more than what happened to you, and that your voice, needs, and desires matter.

You are not broken. You are becoming.
