Individual Counseling

People seek counseling for many reasons.

Some people find it challenging to focus anymore, perhaps because of some life transition or a long list of other worries.

Those worries can turn into overthinking, which leads to overwhelming stress and panic.

The future is uncertain, as you wonder about the challenges of changing jobs, dissatisfaction with where you are in life, or fear of the next steps.

It could be that coping with relationships, people at work, or family has become difficult. Your frustration has turned to anger.

Perhaps you have some personal goals but have no clue how to achieve them. Having a plan might help, but you have no idea how to start.

Does any of this sound familiar?

As these experiences of life continue without interruption, you end up buried beneath a barrage of your worst inner critic.

You even believe that old saying, “If you can’t beat ’em, join ’em.” You’re exhausted; you join the negative thoughts, and they take over.

Unconscious coping to ease your mind is only a temporary fix. Binge-watching on Netflix or trying to find the answer on social media.

Your body feels depleted, so you collapse into nap after nap. Your relationship with yourself and others is suffering.

All these thoughts lead your mind and body down an unhealthy path. The longer you entertain these thoughts and feelings, the more embedded they become.

Your nervous system is in overwhelm and needs your attention.

Moving forward is not easy.

How long can you sustain these negative loops that keep you stuck in place? At this point, you’d probably say, “Not much longer.”

Believe it or not, there is also resistance to feeling good.

When the mind and body develop a pattern in response to your fears, they will do everything to keep you locked into that new comfort zone, even if that comfort zone is hurting you.

Counseling can help you move forward.

Somatic counseling provides a way to get your mind and body working in a healthy direction toward healing what’s at the source of stress, fear, and uncertainty. It can be a tough choice to make, but you must know that you need a guide at this point.

I am here to guide you through your unique therapeutic process and provide support to help you face the underlying fears that have you feeling trapped. Without guidance, you may get even more lost in this mess!

Take some time to intentionally explore emotions and experience the freedom of healing any trauma or limiting beliefs about yourself.

The immediate solution to any problem is to give it some real attention. If you’re already scattered, having someone support you and give you individual attention is one of the best interventions. Imagine being in a safe place where you begin to relax and feel again without fear.
