Do you have an irrational, gut feeling you can't seem to shake? Maybe something telling you that you're not good enough, unsafe, powerless...? Sometimes, difficult experiences in our past can cloud how we live in and see the present. We find ourselves overreacting to things or people, feeling anxious or worthless. Our head can tell us we are being irrational, but that doesn't change the feeling. One of my goals is in helping you re-process the experiences in your life that push these feelings, so you not only know that you're okay - you feel it.

Hello my name is Dr. Anais Munoz Kelly. People come to therapy for many reasons. You might have gone through something painful recently or perhaps you feel numb and don't know why.

Being a parent is so hard. There are moments of joy, there is so much exhaustion, and there are times that honestly feel soul draining. In these times you can feel like a hollow, empty shell going through the motions of life and parenthood. It can feel like there is a fog of stress and anxiety hanging over even the sunniest of days. It can feel so far away from what you imagined. This soul draining feeling has a powerful message for you. Somewhere along the way you lost your connection to yourself.
