It's not just you, life HAS gotten harder in the last few years. If you've been powering through, staying strong and carrying on, but now you're barely getting by and you're tired of feeling like you're not really living your life, it might be time for outside support. The benefit of therapy is that it's a time where you get to focus on yourself, to look at your life, and to get an outside perspective on how it could be different. You don't have to just endure, with the right support, you can heal from the past, and move forward towards a better future.

You have been feeling anxious or depressed and these feelings are interfering with your life. You often feel inadequate and are unsure why. You keep encountering the same life or relationship challenges and can't seem to change the patterns you notice. You've been overwhelmed with systemic issues related to the state of our world such as discrimination and the impacts of climate change. You're feeling the need for extra support in coping with these challenges. Acknowledging the need for help and taking the steps to find it takes much courage and self-compassion, and I commend you for doing so!
