Individual Therapy

“Why do I feel this way?”

You want to stop this tsunami of emotions. It’s hard to make sense of it all, and you feel swept away by an ocean of anxiety, fear, depression, anger, and grief. The feelings threaten to drown you.

No one understands what’s happening to you, making you feel isolated. Your friends and family express concern, but they offer advice that may not feel right for you. Feeling judged and pitied is not what you want or need.

At the same time, you keep wondering why you can’t get over how you feel. Feeling like your old self again is something you desire more than anything.

Talking to friends, getting out more, joining a gym, and writing don’t seem to help. Nothing helps. Stress keeps piling up, leaving you feeling exhausted and hopeless. “Is this it? Is this what being an adult is – feeling exhausted, burnt out, and just holding onto the last threads of your rope?”

There is another way.

Whether these emotions feel like a season or a life-long pattern for you, therapy provides an option to help you sort through intense emotions and learn skills to cope with what life throws your way.

Sometimes, you need an objective person to guide you through these intense feelings, offer feedback, point out what you might be missing or not seeing clearly, and help put the pieces together.

Together, we can learn to silence the harsh internal critic – that cruel, judging voice in your head that keeps you awake at night. We will explore painful memories from the past and look at how former versions of you have learned to cope with difficult situations and how these patterns may cause these judgments you constantly make up in your head.

As your therapist, I can work with you to help you find peace and acceptance with yourself, learn how to set boundaries, and rediscover the joy of living authentically.

Discover a new lease on life.

Individual therapy can help you learn to ride the waves of emotions and feelings without feeling swept out to sea.
