Hi there, I'm Denisse! Whether you recently started feeling overwhelmed and out of sorts or you’ve been struggling for a long time- therapy CAN help. The stresses of daily life can be made more difficult by anxiety, depression, trouble adjusting to changes in your life, and unresolved traumatic experiences. This can lead to engaging in unhealthy coping mechanisms, disruptive behaviors, unhelpful thought patterns, and isolating, which in turn further impacts our ability to help ourselves. Keeping stress to yourself and hoping things will improve on their own doesn't help in the long run.
