Therapists in Cary, NC
With all of the changes recently occurring in our daily lives, feeling lost and uncertain about life is becoming a very real part of your reality. Looking at yourself today, you realize that you are a shell of what you once used to be. The happiness, joy, and fulfillment of life that you once knew has become a distant memory. So much so that you no longer recognize the person staring back at you in the mirror. As each day passes, the feelings of being "stuck" have taken hold and it seems likely that there is no hope in sight. It's almost like being stuck in a bad dream that you can't wake up from.

Beginning therapy is a courageous, and albeit scary, step. You might feel unsure of what to expect, carry fear or shame about reaching out, or feel uncertain about what you even need, and that’s okay. My hope is that therapy can be a soft landing into these unknowns: a safe, supportive space where you can slow down, tune in, reconnect with yourself, and feel empowered to make meaningful, values-aligned change. Whether you’re feeling disconnected, anxious, overwhelmed, or simply curious about understanding yourself more deeply, I’m here to support you.

Stress can come from many different sources and may become complicated and difficult to deal with. Such debilitating stress can be based in everyday life or a sudden occurrence such as loss of a loved one. There is no specific way to grieve and no guideline that was ever taught. Grief can be such a heavy burden to carry that can affect every aspect of your life. It can be stressful, confusing, and debilitating.

Life just doesn’t line up with what you hoped it would be. Despite looking like you’ve got it together on the outside, you feel anxious and depressed on the inside.. You’ve lost yourself in the midst of trauma, a diagnosis, loss, or life transition. You can’t shut your brain off. No matter how hard you try, you struggle with worry, rumination, guilt, and feelings of worthlessness. The negative self-talk leaves you feeling alone and afraid. This affects all aspects of your life. Your world feels like it’s getting smaller and smaller, and you don’t know where you fit.
