Adults I work with often find they are experts in taking care of everyone around them but feel uncertain how to take care of themselves. They may be “people pleasers” and know, in great detail, what others may need and how to fix things, but struggle to know what they themselves need, how they feel or how to address their own problems. They may have had traumatic or adverse experiences that impact the way they react and cope in many situations. This often leads to feelings of anger, resentment, exhaustion and neglect of their own needs, with an increase in anxiety, depression, stress, burnout or grief taking over.
If this sounds familiar to you and you are finding yourself more depleted, unsupported and realizing its time for a change, but you’re not sure where to begin, I can help support you in learning how to build healthy boundaries, implement effective coping skills, heal wounds from trauma and improve your relationships with those in your life, while finding the balance of your own personal well-being. I enjoy working with clients who are ready to do the work—people who want real change and are willing to take meaningful steps toward it.
Therapy offers the opportunity for some much-needed focus on you; a place to be heard, understood and supported. Therapy also offers a place where we have to exercise our emotional muscles, similar to working out at a gym, therapy is not always easy or fun, it does require work and commitment. In the end if we truly invest in that time, we begin to see results, find our strength, and experience real transformation and change. If you’re ready to take action, commit to change, and engage in the hard work required to improve your life, I’m the right therapist for you!
