therapy for navigating Your Identity as an Adult Child of Immigrants

Relationship centered, identity empowering virtual therapy for individuals and couples navigating personal, relational, and cultural challenges in MD, DC, VA, OH and PSYPACT States

What does it mean to be enough when you’re carrying the weight of everyone’s dreams?

You’ve spent your life caught between cultures, feeling the constant pull of family expectations, mainstream society, and cultural traditions while trying to build a life that honors your own identity and dreams. The pressure to achieve perfection—whether in your career, relationships, or personal identity—has left you anxious, overwhelmed, and questioning your worth. Generational differences create a gap that feels impossible to bridge, leaving you misunderstood by your family and feeling alone in your struggles.

You carry the unspoken weight of their sacrifices, and the fear of letting them down drives you to push harder, even when you’re already exhausted. Beneath it all, you’re wondering if you’ll ever feel truly seen, valued, and enough—for them, the world, and for yourself.

It’s no wonder that feelings of guilt, anxiety, frustration, and self-doubt keep showing up. You’re stretched so thin- balancing the weight of family expectations, cultural identity, and the desire to live authentically would leave anyone feeling exhausted.

But here’s the truth…

You don’t have to choose between your family’s expectations and your own happiness. Let’s work together to help you find clarity and confidence in embracing both your heritage and your individuality.

Together, we will…

What do we do?

At Adorn Therapy Services, we focus on helping you understand and navigate the complexities of your relationships—whether with yourself, your loved ones, or the world around you.

Through one-on-one therapy, couples’ sessions, or workshops, we’ll explore your patterns and uncover their deeper roots. Together, we’ll work toward building meaningful connections, finding clarity, and creating healthier, more fulfilling relationships. Let’s take this journey to heal, reconnect, and rediscover the joy of authentic, supportive connections.

  • With support and guidance, we’ll dive into the core issues and pain points that have been difficult to let go of. Our therapists are committed to ensuring you feel truly seen, understood, and heard—free from judgment. Together, we’ll uncover the fears that have been holding you back and explore the hopes and values that shape how you envision and experience future relationships.

  • Grounded in attachment work and cultural identity exploration, we'll help you uncover how your upbringing, cultural identities, and life experiences have shaped your self-view and expectations in relationships. Together, we'll identify the patterns you tend to fall into, empowering you to understand and transform them for healthier connections.

  • Even with the best insights, making changes can be challenging. With the support and guidance of your therapist, you won't have to face this journey alone. We’ll help you identify the tools you need to create meaningful change and build your confidence to take those steps. Throughout the process, we'll also ensure you maintain compassion for yourself as you navigate these challenges.

You deserve to live a life that reflects your values—not just the ones placed on you by others.
