You've probably tried a few things already; Therapy, medications, or maybe just pushing through. The Anxiety is still there, and the Depression seems to stick. Whatever you've been using to cope, even Addiction, keeps pulling you back again and again. It's not about willpower, and you probably know that. But knowing it doesn't seem to change it. Most of what we tried treats the surface. It might feel like, the cause underneath all of it, hasn't been touched yet. That's where the work I do is different. If you've been stuck for a long time, I’m here to tell you that you haven’t failed. It's a sign something deeper needs attention.
At Pathway To Self, I work with adults dealing with Addiction, Anxiety, and Depression, especially when those things might trace back to pain from our past. Using IFS, somatic, and relational approaches, mindfulness, EFT and more, we find the root of what's happening. Once this happens, people finally get back their sense of calm, meaning, and stability.
Therapy, to me, is about finding what works for you. In other words, it's never about trying to fit you into a box; it's about working with you, not on you. By taking the time to learn who you are, your story and your strengths, we'll move towards helping you find real, lasting change. Whenever you're ready, visit my website to book your free consultation.

My approach is based on the person in front of me. I use parts-work therapy (such as internal family systems) with some, while others may benefit from more Mindfulness-based focus. I use a trauma-focused approach first, within a relational framework, meaning I look for what's happening under the surface, believing that our symptoms are often just our mind's best attempt to help us survive.
