Therapy for Women with Relationship Stress

Feeling overshadowed in your relationship?

Whether in your relationships, marriage or even family- you often feel it’s hard to put your feelings into words and when you do talk- you don’t feel understood. You don’t even know if you are making sense.

Some days you see a future with them and other days you aren’t sure why you stay.

You feel burnt out and now walk away from problems and try to get over it because expressing yourself is going to just cause more issues.

Other people may not know it, but you are stressed and worried about where your relationship is headed if things don’t change.

You want to work on yourself

You know the only person you have control over is yourself. You are looking for a therapist who:

Understands how hard and rewarding relationships can be.
Gives you a safe space to grow-away from the judgement and pressure from family and friends. A space you don’t feel pressured to “have it all together”.
Feedback on ways you can communicate more openly about your needs.

Hey, I’m Kayla Stewart.

The Therapist.

Most of my work is with couples in my Summerville, South Carolina office-but I understand the unique challenges women face in relationships and marriage. Feeling unheard, avoiding tough issues, or trying to work with a partner who shuts down (or shuts you out) can leave you feeling alone and unsure how to move forward.

This space is for YOU. I won’t judge your partner or only take your side. Instead through individual counseling and relationship coaching, we’ll focus on your individual goals, areas you want to improve and communication skills.

Kayla Stewart is a couples therapist who specializes in couples therapy, marriage counseling, and affair recovery in Summerville, South Carolina.
