Have you tried counseling before and found it didn't help? In my experience, traditional, or talk therapy, has limitations. Many people struggle with relationships, self-esteem, depression and/or anxiety. I have found that these issues are rooted in the "small t" traumas experienced earlier in life, and the resulting beliefs we have about ourselves, such as I'm not good enough, I have to be perfect or I'm not safe. Our nervous systems get overloaded so that we are in a near constant state of fight, flight or freeze. We live with negative self talk, which feels normal, but isn't. These symptoms lead to depression and anxiety.
