Have you been feeling anxious and insecure? It is an overwhelming time, and many of us are feeling lost, confused and stuck in our lives. You may be unhappy in your relationships, lacking self-confidence, or just feeling uncertain about why you feel the way you do. Perhaps it’s even gotten to the point where you’ve been feeling unlike yourself for so long, that you’re willing to try almost anything to feel better.

The high levels of anxiety, anger and loss that families are facing today are wreaking havoc on our well-being and in our relationships. You may notice the ways you used to cope with stress are no longer working. You long to move away from being in survival mode but aren’t sure where to begin. You may secretly believe nobody out there will ever understand you or care to, which can be a lonely and painful experience. You being here means you are exploring the idea of reaching out to speak with a therapist. This is a brave and vulnerable first step.

Are you dealing with depressive symptoms and a lack of purpose in life? Would you like to learn skills that can help you during and after therapy to navigate life better? The CBT approach that I utilize in my online-groups focuses on helping participants be empowered by gaining better awareness about their own thoughts, behaviors and interactions with others. Step by step, you will learn to bring more balance to your way of thinking, behaving and interacting with others, and set reachable short-term and long-term goals that will give you an increased sense of purpose in life. The group format also helps with feelings of isolation.
