Hello, do any of the these statements sound similar to what you are going through? Replaying the past or rehearsing sthe future. Having a difficult time adjusting to a transition -even a positive change can be difficult. Maybe you are struggling in your relationships, or you are struggling with self worth. Maybe you feel like you can't keep up with all the stressors/pressures in your life. You are barely holding on. These are some of the reasons you may be considering therapy. Psychotherapy can open the door for you to live your life with clarity, confidence, and a true sense of peace.

Life is a journey that can sometimes seem overwhelming with no supports. You feel stuck in patterns or behaviors, wanting new ways to meet life's difficulties. Feelings of powerlessness and vulnerability understandably lead to distress, impacting relationships you have with your partner, children, friends or coworkers. I believe we live in, and are a product of our relationships - not only with others, but with our own thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. It is my belief that to operate authentically in connection to those around us, we must work to strengthen the most integral relationship we hold; the one we have with ourselves.
