I know there isn't always the time, money, or energy to deal with our emotions or past trauma. Inevitably, we become exhausted by trying to push down our feelings, or at times our emotions overwhelm us and come out in ways that are harmful to ourselves or others. Facing your emotions can be scary, but you don't have to do it alone. This quote by an unknown author resonates with me as I think about my work as a therapist, "I understand if you have not felt safe enough or energetic enough or ready enough to feel what is in your heart. Sweet one remember, you cannot delay it indefinitely."
I've worked in the mental health field for 15 years, and I believe you already have the inner resources and qualities you need to live with more confidence and joy. By incorporating concepts from a variety of modalities including Internal Family Systems (IFS), you can begin to uncover the inner wisdom clarity, and peace you've been searching for.
Taking the next step can be hard, but continuing to carry such heavy burdens alone isn't easy either. Though you may not always believe it, you deserve to feel better. Schedule your free consultation today.
