From the outside, it would appear that you have it all figured out. School? Aced it. Prestigious job? Grabbed it. Life that others would drool over? Nailed it. You've got it all! But then, why do you still feel miserable all the time? It's like your brain is in perpetual crisis mode. "What's wrong with me?!" you internally scream at yourself. Your friends and family offer reassurance, but you can't shake this feeling that at any moment, this life that you've worked so hard for is about to come crashing down. You keep a smile plastered on your face, but inside you're on the verge of imploding. You can't keep this up for much longer.
But what can you do? How is talking to anyone going to get you out of this mess? You want some reassurance that you're not a horrible person. You want to feel at peace in your body and to silence that incessant self-flagellating voice in your head. Most of all, you want to be able to finally ENJOY life and feel excited about what's to come.
I hear you and I've got you. Reaching out for help is likely not one of your fortes, but it seems like it's time to call in reinforcements. And luckily, no actual phone call is required. You can hop over to my website (laurenwaikart.com) and book a free, no-commitment-required consultation with just a few taps of your finger/mouse. Because, why not?

I work exclusively with those seeking relief from anxiety, body image concerns, trauma and eating disorders. We'll get clear on the type of life that you're wanting, audit the thoughts/behaviors that might be getting in the way, and experiment with new ways of responding in an effort to get you closer to that dream life. I also offer EMDR for those with historical crud they'd like to clear out.
