Individual Therapy

Have you hit a wall?

Is your fear taking over?

Your thoughts spinning out of control?

You feel your heart race, but you have nowhere to direct the energy?

Maybe it is your relationship with your family or your partner, or the fact that you don’t have the relationships you want with them – because they just don’t seem to understand.

Maybe it is your job, which no longer feels satisfying but you don’t understand why. Maybe it is the few extra glasses of wine that you know you shouldn’t be drinking, but they help you not face the feelings you aren’t ready to face.

And now, with social distancing, will life ever return to normal? What will happen to your job? Your finances? Your future? Is the instability worse than the idea of getting sick?

Embrace the opportunity!

There is no time like the present to face your frustration. Face your fear and tackle it. Work on the challenges you have not wanted to work on because you were too busy; there were too many distractions.

Before, you could run and keep running. The faster you ran, the less you had to feel.

This is the perfect time.

Until now, there has really been no time in history where we have been forced to simply stop. Breathe. Feel. Face the world differently. Face your demons and make the changes you want to make.

I understand the fear of stopping. Of feeling. Of facing the hardest, deepest, and most painful thoughts – and then working through them.

I look forward to helping you get to the other side – where those thoughts and feelings and secrets don’t carry with them the same kind of pain.

You can’t un-live your life. But you can change the power your past has over your present and your future.

The Future

You can have the life you want.

You will feel joy without your past pain, a constant dull ache, coloring each experience. You will enjoy relationships without the constant fear of being hurt or disappointed.

You will get to a sense of inner peace. You will be able to enjoy your relationships without needing to control them. You will be busy without using busyness to dull your emotions.

You will drink without using alcohol to dull your pain. You won’t lose yourself in the process; you will just gain a sense of freedom.

And you’re ready for that change… at least sometimes.

Have you felt as though something has been weighing you down or holding you back?

It feels too scary. It feels like an impossible mountain to climb. You want to be on the other side of the mountain, but you don’t really want to do the work to get there.

It feels too hard.

Maybe you’ve toyed with the idea of therapy…

And maybe have even tried it before.

But before, maybe you weren’t ready to share everything you’ve been REALLY feeling.

Maybe you weren’t ready to climb mountains and face fears.

Now you feel as though there’s no choice.
You need help.

I’m here to help you manage your emotions that you can’t manage by yourself.

I’ll provide a safe, comfortable place where you can share what’s buried inside, say things that you weren’t sure should be put into words, and face fears that you have never really wanted to face.

We’ll set goals and do exercises to achieve them. We will reach your goals and set new goals; and, after a while, you will look back in disbelief at how far you have come.

Maybe the goal will be stopping and feeling for a few minutes a day. Maybe the goal will be less wine at the end of each day. Maybe the goal will be not getting angry at your partner or your kids when you want to scream. Maybe the goal will be sleeping, really sleeping at night.

Our work will be transformative… not always easy, but almost always insightful, powerful, and rewarding.

Let the journey to happiness begin!
