Do You Have Boundary Issues?

Take the Healthier Boundaries Assessment, developed by master’s level psychotherapist Dana Skaggs and start your journey toward a more peaceful, happier life.

Keeping the Peace

Keeping the peace is wearing you out. Someone being upset, especially with you, disturbs your whole day and dominates your mental real estate.

Can't Say "No"

You believe that what others want matters more than what you want and the thought of them being disappointed in you is unbearable.

People Pleasing

You sacrifice your authentic self in order to get someone else’s approval and suppress your own needs and emotions if you believe they will upset or disrespect someone else.

Justifying Behavior

Instead of calling someone out on their mistreatment of you, you make excuses for their behavior. Fear of abandonment causes you to allow and excuse disrespectful behavior.

The Freedom of "No" Formula

Looking to set healthy boundaries, say “No” without guilt, navigate toxic relationships, and protect your own peace?

Look no further than “The Freedom of ‘No’ Formula” course! With actionable strategies and a 60-day timeline, you can start living your best life today. Join now and discover the power of saying “No” to what doesn’t serve you!

About Dana Skaggs

Meet Dana, also known as the Queen of Boundaries! With over 15 years of experience in private practice, she’s a true expert in helping clients understand how healthy boundaries (or the lack thereof) can impact their overall wellbeing. Dana specializes in anxiety and adjustment issues, as well as trauma work, and takes great pride in supporting her clients on their journey towards healing and personal growth.

What My Clients Are Saying

If I had learned to spot the boundary violations taught in the first module 15 years ago, I could have saved myself and my family years of heartache and pain.

The course was truly life changing. I always thought about Boundaries in the context of dealing with others. I realized that I was violating boundaries within myself, in terms of unrealistic expectations.

Knowing and understanding what boundaries are is an important first step. Dana explains concepts and presents the thought process necessary to recognize and manage boundaries.

The Freedom of No course drastically improved how I approach my relationships and experiences. I struggled with people-pleasing my whole life and it was so exhausting! I now worry less about what others think of me. I’m also more confident and have less anxiety. In fact, by applying the concepts I learned in this course, I know it played a crucial role in helping me land my new job! I learned so many tools and techniques that I can apply in every relationship I have, especially in the one with myself.
