Jasmine Perez- First Gen Stress &amp; Overthinking

Maybe lately you’ve found yourself crying in the car before heading home or sitting in silence just trying to catch your breath after a long day. You’re constantly overwhelmed, your mind won’t slow down, and it feels harder and harder to focus. Saying "yes" when family needs you, while trying to build a life that feels like your own is its own kind of weight, one that quietly leads to anxiety, overwhelm, and burnout. You are doing what needs to be done, but it's starting to take a toll and you are noticing shorter patience, stronger reactions, and less enjoyment. You’re always “on edge,” like something might go wrong at any moment.

Using CBT and IFS, we look at the moments when you notice yourself snapping, shutting down, or saying yes to something that drains you-whether its your mom, family, or work. We get to the core thoughts and parts of you that take over in those instances so we can help you build new ways of responding, that don't have you overthinking or feeling guilty after.

Maybe someone has suggested therapy, but it still doesn’t feel easy to start. If you were taught not to dwell on what you’re feeling, it can seem easier to just push through. When stress starts showing up in your focus, patience, and how you feel day to day, it’s often a sign to get support. Reach out via message or phone to book your appointment today.
