Has life taken some unexpected twists and turns? Do you often wonder, “How can I make things better?” There are lots of strategies out there to work through various issues. I have found that one size does not fit all when it comes to what works. My goal is to work with clients to figure out what is useful for each person or couple that I see. To help accommodate tricky schedules, I have recently opened up a handful of late afternoon and evening appointments.
Learn to overcome barriers to communication such as defensiveness, detachment, criticism, etc. Explore what is keeping you stuck. Define and move towards what “better” looks like for you. Increase self care, mindfulness practices, deepen understanding of self worth, and implement positive coping strategies.
So, how do we invite hope back into life? One way is to simply take a step forward. If you would like to start this journey together, feel free to call or email to set up a consultation appointment. I would be delighted to meet you!
