Anxiety hurts. Whether it wakes you up in the morning and lingers all day or hits you like gang busters when you least expect it. Whether you know where it's coming from or not, anxiety tells you something is wrong and needs fixing. Anxiety is often tied to grief. You lose a person, relationship or perhaps a dream and you're left in a puddle of pain. Therapy is about working through grief and finding the courage to start again. You develop coping skills to help yourself feel better and communication skills to express your needs. You identify personal goals, and together, we chart your course toward your best and truest self.
