Therapy with me is a gentle process of relaxing into who you are. I work with people who feel like they are straining in some significant way, and who are exhausted and burnt out from not feeling able to just be free. Anxiety, depression, stress, people-pleasing, complicated relationships, and difficult life situations can slowly impact us such that we contort over time into ways of being that feel draining and unreflective of who we truly are. And, it’s surprising how difficult it is to get out of these contortions on our own. We attempt a myriad of strategies, but ultimately end up stuck in the same old patterns, just more exhausted than we were before.
In therapy, we will work on a whole different kind of approach. Instead of trying to “try” your way to being better or drowning feelings in distractions, we’ll courageously approach the fears and feelings that keep you contorted. And if you’re like most of my clients, you’ll find that much more quickly than you thought possible you start to feel freer and more able to be yourself.
In our work together, I’ll hang with you long past the point where people usually offer you a quick solution. We’ll go deep, uncovering buried parts of your inner world that wield surprising power from the outskirts of your awareness. And, you’ll be amazed how simply doing that work frees you up to breathe. You’ll start finding space in your life again, able to relax into who you are in situations where you’ve always had to strain.
