Marlow Amick, LPC-MHSP(T)

Somewhere along the way, you learned who you needed to be in order to be loved.

Maybe that meant being perfect, being good, being quiet. Maybe it meant hiding your needs, softening your sensitivity, or taking care of everyone else before yourself.

Now, even if you’ve outgrown those roles, they still linger — in your relationships, in your body, in the way you speak to yourself when no one’s listening. And you're tired. Tired of performing, tired of questioning your worth, tired of feeling like too much and not enough all at once.

I work with people who have spent years trying to earn love through self-erasure — often shaped by early family dynamics, rigid belief systems, chronic illness, or complex trauma. In therapy, we explore who you became to survive, and gently begin to meet the parts of you that are still carrying those burdens. I draw from attachment-based, trauma-informed approaches like EMDR, parts work, and schema therapy to help you unlearn what was never truly yours — and reconnect with the self that was always there, waiting to be seen.

My style is warm, curious, and collaborative. I believe the therapy space should feel like a soft place to land — where you don’t have to be good, or perfect, or put together. Just human. Just you.

You were never too much, only ever trying to be enough. I’d be honored to help you come home to yourself.
