Do you find yourself fighting back tears at work? Do you feel like you have to lie and pretend when people ask you how you're doing? Are you starting to question your decisions, maybe even losing trust in yourself? When you notice that "small" things are causing "overreactions," you may feel like there's something wrong with you, and spiral deeper into confusion and self-doubt. These feelings are often connected to older issues that we try to shut away and pretend aren't affecting us. We can usually get by using denial and avoidance for awhile, but it almost always catches up with us.
By looking for a therapist, you have already taken the first step toward feeling better. A therapist can help you move forward when you feel stuck, support you through grief and trauma, and provide honest and supportive feedback.
It's important to find a therapist that you feel a connection to. I approach my work with compassion, humor, and honesty, and my clients say that they feel safe, accepted and understood. I encourage you to take the next step and email or call me to schedule an appointment to see if we are a good fit. I look forward to hearing from you!
