You wake to another day, feeling apprehension and fear. You experience physical symptoms; a pit in your stomach, fast heartbeat, and uneasiness. The constant voice in your head reminds you of all of the “shoulds” and “what if’s”. Feelings of hopelessness and depression take over. You have tried to share your feelings with friends and family members, only to be told, you worry too much and just need to relax. You try to relax and appreciate all of the good in your life, but that doesn’t make you feel better. You focus on pushing forward and getting things done, but it is hard to concentrate. You are tired of feeling this way.
Therapy will help. Let’s identify unhealthy patterns that are leading to anxiety and unhappiness. I provide an empathetic, supportive, and non-judgmental space to help you reach your goals. We will work together using evidence based strategies, to gain insight and develop healthy coping strategies to overcome your anxiety and sadness and heal your pain.
It’s hard to ask for help when you're the one that people always rely on. But we all need support and someone who will listen to us without judgment. You deserve to enjoy the life you worked so hard to create. Let’s work together to create a life filled with less anxiety and more joy and fulfillment. Call me today for a free 15 minute phone consultation.
