Have you ever felt afraid to fail? Regardless of the circumstances, failing, for some is not an option, yet it consumes many to a point where you become stifled into being complacent. You might find yourself frozen in doing nothing because you are stuck. The truth is high achievers often struggle with anxiety – it’s par for the course. Those who find success in all aspects of life are often viewed as “having it all together” but what often follows is a bag full of stress, depression, and anxiety. These states often lead to destructive or disturbing thought patterns, which then leads to negative influences on behavior and emotions.
My name is Dr. Simoné Edwards. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with a Doctorate of Education specializing in Sport & Athletic Management & a Master’s degree in counseling with over 22 years of counseling experience. My specialty is working with school-aged children & young adults. My strength is building trust & rapport creating a safe space for all.
The techniques utilized in our sessions are beneficial for many areas in your life where you may find yourself struggling in private battles. Let’s approach your stress, depression, & anxiety together as a starting point and reconnect you with all that you love in your world and with your purpose. Book a session today and let’s show you how!
