Are you finding yourself struggling with every day life? Feeling sad, unmotivated, and at times numb? Or maybe nervous about leaving the house, going to new places, or feeling unwanted fears that were never there before? Whether you are experiencing anxiety, depression, or both, Approachable Counseling provides a safe atmosphere to begin change and healing. It can be intimidating to begin therapy. There are a lot of "what ifs" and questions regarding who your therapist will be and if you will connect with them. I believe that making connections with my clients is crucial to good therapy and making change.
I believe that everyone experiences life differently, which is why I utilize a psychodynamic approach, which means processing a deeper understanding of your emotions in order to gain insight into the way you think and feel. With this approach, you can begin to make healthier choices to support your mental well-being.
If you are feeling nervous or unsure about starting therapy, give me a call, email me, or text me, whichever you're most comfortable with, and I can answer your questions and share more about the therapy process!
