You are feeling overwhelmed by your thoughts and emotions. You feel disconnected from those around you and maybe from yourself. Maybe you shut out the world. Maybe you don't feel like yourself. Maybe you are not sleeping well. Maybe it is challenging to create boundaries. Past negative experiences may be contributing to your current concerns. You want to find a way to manage these feelings. Your goal is to have an awareness of yourself and triggers. With the right tools and interventions customized to your needs, healing is possible.
I am passionate about supporting adults understanding their story and gain a greater understanding of their strengths. I am trained in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia allowing me to help individuals explore sleep patterns that may be impacting their lives.
It takes bravery to reach out and I'm glad you're taking a big step toward your healing by searching for a therapist. I am committed to hold a safe, compassionate and open space for you to navigate life’s experiences. I invite you to schedule a free consultation with me or visit my website to learn more at www.anbcounseling.com .
