How much do you know about your emotions? Did you know that learning a “feelings” vocabulary to process your experiences supports emotion regulation? Many of us learn adaptive strategies as children, allowing us to survive in a rigid environment while meeting some of our needs. Later you may find that the strategy that kept you safe in childhood interferes with your capacity for connection as an adult. We can explore the patterns that put distance in your relationships despite your desire to increase intimacy. Whatever your childhood lacked should not predetermine your happiness in adulthood. You deserve to thrive.
During our work together, I will help you identify your emotions, listen for their wisdom, and learn ways to process their messages. Together, we can generate ways to help you reconnect with yourself and with others who matter to you. I will ask you about impediments to living your best life and if particular patterns tend to get you stuck.
The road may seem challenging yet you will not have to walk it alone. As your fellow traveler, I can listen to you, offer some resources, and together we can plan a path forward that will add more vitality and meaning to your life.
