Adulting can be hard. When you have a lot going on, tasks go undone. Things pile up. So do anxiety, guilt and fear. Past issues complicate your current struggles. Sluggishness, overwhelm, regret and sadness come on. Focusing and making decisions gets cloudy. It can be hard to prioritize and get back on track. Feelings that have been pushed aside can be in your way. Can you even remember the last time you truly felt relaxed? Figuring out your feelings, where you hold them in your body and where they come from helps get to the root cause and start to heal it.
We start where you are and go where you want to go. You set the pace. Gentle methods with some talking, some learning of new coping tools, and moving your body uses both sides of your brain where all your memories are stored. This creates new neural pathways moving you past being stuck and on towards your goals.
Envisioning your best life, creating new possibilities and improving your relationships is a great way to use therapy. If you are reading this, you already have some motivation!
