In-Person Appointments Avaliable! You strive to be the best, the best partner, the best parent, the best at the office, but you always feel like you fall short. Will life always be this chaotic and exhausting? Despite your best efforts, there never seems to be enough time in the day. After caring for so many others in your life, you struggle to care for yourself. You're constantly running on empty. Although you recognize the patterns in your life you don't want to repeat, you can't seem to stop the cycle. In the past, you've tried to make changes on your own, but nothing works long-term. You're stuck and not sure what to do next.
You're ready to bring balance to your life and feel confident in your decisions. Imagine feeling capable even in moments of stress, knowing you are enough. Using primarily CBT and EMDR, I help adults with trauma, anxiety, and issues in pregnancy/postpartum.
Let's work together to create a plan to accomplish your goals and find hope again. While I am based in downtown Charleston, online counseling gives us the flexibility to connect anywhere in South Carolina. Visit my website at newmorningcounseling.com for more details and to schedule a free 15 minute phone consultation.
