Therapists in Richmond, VA

Lately it feels like the only certainty is uncertainty. Everywhere you look people are stressed and sometimes it feels hard to breathe. There's a lot of temptation to pull yourself up by your bootstraps and keep pressing on like everything is okay. But the truth is everything is not okay. The fact that you are struggling doesn't make you weak...it makes you Human. You can choose to keep going as you are and hope things get better on their own. Or you can go for the life you were meant to live. Monday Courage is about the courage it takes to break your rules and start living life with purpose.

You’re feeling hopeless, wanting to give up running out of options, and feeling exhausted. Your story is filled with pain, grief, and confusion. Family and friends let you down in your childhood. People have given up on you. Despite all this, there is something that keeps pushing you forward. People depend on you, but you can't help them because lack of motivation, but you can't give up. You are here to find understanding and support in finding and learning about yourself.

Urban living has its unique challenges, which can lead to stress, depression, anxiety, feelings of emptiness, a sense of loneliness and other highly charged feelings and experiences. Are you in transition, a "transplant" to the area or maybe you have lived here all of your life? Are you having relationship problems? Going through a break-up, separation or divorce? Are you experiencing difficulty in connecting with others? Maybe you are experiencing a crisis in your career, feeling mismatched/unfulfilled? Or are you feeling unhappy but can't figure out the source, the "why" you are feeling this way?

Do you remember a time when you were calm and at peace? Has it been difficult to see the light ahead of you and find ways to get back on track in your life? What if you can get on that path you envisioned and able to return to your previous level of functioning? I believe we all have stories to tell and your story matters. I understand that it can be quiet challenging and scary to know at which point you felt lost in control of your life. It can be even scarier to know whom to rely on or whom to open up to during this most critical time.
