How to Not Abandon Yourself: Reconnect With Who You Really Are
Join Andrea Cruz, LMFT & Valerie, Licensed Therapist for a free 2 hours workshop. Are you tired of putting everyone else first? This free workshop dives into the patterns of self-abandonment — people-pleasing, codependency, and losing yourself in relationships — and gives you practical tools to reconnect with your authentic self. Walk away with a clear framework for honoring your needs without guilt.

Is This You?
You Know Something Needs to Change
If any of these feel painfully familiar, this webinar was made for you.
You say yes when you mean no — and then resent everyone for it
You lose yourself in relationships and forget what you actually want
You feel guilty for having needs or setting boundaries
You over-function for everyone else while neglecting yourself
You know you're abandoning yourself but can't seem to stop
You feel disconnected from your own emotions and desires
If you checked even one of those boxes, you're in the right place.
What You'll Walk Away With
2 Hours That Could Change Everything
This isn't a lecture. It's a conversation with practitioners who understand what you're going through.
Why You Self-Abandon
Understand the nervous system patterns that drive self-abandonment — it's not a character flaw, it's a survival strategy.
Boundary-Setting Without Guilt
Practical tools for saying no, honoring your needs, and staying connected to yourself even in difficult relationships.
The Self-Reconnection Framework
A step-by-step process for coming back to yourself when you've drifted into people-pleasing or over-functioning.
Healthy Relationships Start Within
Discover how stopping self-abandonment transforms every relationship in your life — romantic, family, and professional.
Your Personal Reclamation Plan
Leave with a concrete 30-day plan for rebuilding your relationship with yourself.
Plus: Go Deeper
For those ready for sustained transformation, we'll introduce our 4-8 week group therapy programs starting the week after the webinar. Starting at $260/person.
