The complexities of life can be challenging to navigate on your own. To stay or leave the relationship, resign from work or switch majors, work through grief and loss, or how to set boundaries with friends and family, can send our thoughts spinning into a cycle of anxiety. Practicing honesty with yourself may feel daunting & in some cases impossible, as it can call for acknowledging uncomfortable situations or feelings in your life. The fear of speaking up can lead to avoidance behaviors such as substance use issues, withdrawal from friends & family, cessation of things you enjoy, mental fog & depression as well as codependency.
Therapy can support you in managing those fears. You will be able to learn about your inner voice, gain personal insight & practice unhooking from the thoughts and behaviors that seem to bring you down. With greater awareness of your strengths within, you may notice your confidence & sense of self-worth increase.
Inner peace & emotional freedom through self-acceptance & compassion are realistic, human experiences. Let's work together to bring you to a place of living the kind of life that makes you feel like the best version of yourself. Send me an email or give me a call. Let's talk about what you need.
