These days, just waking up is a nerve-wracking endeavor. Before your feet hit the floor, your mind is blitzed with a million “Oh, no’s” and “What if’s.” You peel yourself out of bed, but your every move is tense. It’s like you’re inching closer toward some disaster, even if you don’t know what it is. The tension and chaos build, leaving you too exhausted to live life on your terms. Instead, you’re like a prisoner, constantly living in a state of “fight or flight.” You suspect it has something to do with past trauma, but you’re not sure how to connect the dots. One thing’s for sure, though: You can’t keep on living like this...
When you experience trauma, your mind and body develop mechanisms to help you survive and cope with the pain. That trauma response then affects how you deal with everyday stress thereafter. In therapy, we’ll distinguish past stress responses that work for you from those that are holding you back. Let’s reframe the stress so it no longer works against you!
I have several therapeutic methods, some based on the latest neuroscience, to help you see how the past is affecting your present. This work will liberate you from trauma’s hold over your life. You’ll feel lighter, and you’ll take in stride the stresses that once overwhelmed you. Life can be so much better. Call now and we’ll schedule your free consultation.
