Therapists in P0H

Are you a worrier, over-thinker and are you anxious? Do you believe your thoughts and ignore your emotions? Did you grow up in a chaotic, uncertain home? Much of the anxiety that comes from your mind is actually the alarmed and wounded younger version of you that still lives in your body. If this resonates with you, know that you are not alone. My ideal client will be ready to learn how to feel better in their bodies rather than hoping changing anxious thoughts will be the answer. You need to feel it, to heal it!
