Individual Counseling

1899874207Things are starting to pile up.

“If I can just get through this week/month/year, I’ll be fine,” you think to yourself, but things keep piling up.

You worry that your friends and your partner feel neglected, but you can’t find the energy to help yourself, let alone pour into them like you used to.

You watch yourself repeating negative patterns from your childhood with your own children but feel powerless to stop.

A bad day will make you self-isolate for a week, or a missed opportunity causes you to spiral into self-loathing, which has become a destructive but familiar pattern.

It’s been years of trying to find a solution, only to give up after a few months, and you’re beginning to doubt that anything will get better.

You’ve struggled for a long time.

You’ve begun to resent your friends because they seem to have it all together while you’re struggling to tread water.

You haven’t felt at peace in years. You’ve been so overwhelmed for so long that you don’t even remember what started it.

You’re getting weekly migraines, embarrassing bouts of stomach issues, and feeling constantly tired. However, you feel too guilty to relax or take a day off.

I can help.

Whether you come with a specific issue in mind or you’re experiencing general overwhelm, we will work together to figure out the best way forward for you.

Our brains are incredible at keeping us alive, but sometimes, the very skills we used to survive are now holding us back from the lives we want and deserve.

During our sessions, we’ll use curiosity and compassion to sift through the clamor to find the peace that has been eluding you for so long.

2476888627We’ll find individual solutions.

No two people are alike, so we’ll try different methods to see which best serves you.

We might partner talk therapy with a somatic approach to pinpoint where trauma is stored in your body. Or practice mindful containment to keep your experiences from bleeding over into each other during your day.

No matter what interventions we use, the results will be the same: you’ll finally be able to let go of the past, stop being triggered by the present, and step into the future with strength and purpose.

I believe in you.

This work will not be easy and will require consistency and stamina, but I know you can do it! How am I so sure? You’ve already begun just by checking out this site.

Your life is more than just a never-ending to-do list. You owe it to yourself to have a life you’re living and not just surviving.

As you do this important work, you’ll find that you’re able to show up for yourself, and the people you care about, in new and healthy ways.

You’ll be able to break generational patterns of abuse, and model behavior for your children that you were never shown yourself.

And I’ll be right here with you, every step of the way, as we peel away the layers that used to protect, but now confine you.

Let’s keep up the momentum. Call or text me today to schedule a free 15-minute consultation, and let’s continue helping you help yourself.
