There's an energy in your body that never seems to settle. This isn't an exciting feeling. This restlessness is daunting. Negative thoughts plague you day in and day out. Prayer brings you some relief, but it's only a matter of time before the mind takes over once again. You've become reactive. The irritability is exhausting. Your thoughts keep you up at night and the sleeplessness fans the intrusive thoughts into a flame. It's a vicious cycle. You're not the best version of yourself. You're craving tranquility, rest, and contentment for your life. You're ready to find your peace.

You are going through a big change and feel "off." Perhaps you just had a baby, quit your dream job, or are going through a big identity shift (e.g., sexuality, gender, religious beliefs). You need somewhere to talk openly about these changes without judgement. You might be struggling with negative feelings about yourself now. You may feel like you're trying to "catch up" or fearing that you might hurt others through your changes. You'd like to understand yourself better, learn about what is "normal" in this process, and try to find a way to make these changes as smoothly as possible. Therapy is a great place to navigate this!
