You are really tired. If you’re being honest, your head is spinning & you’re anxious a lot. It’s keeping you from being able to rest, let alone enjoy life. Your thoughts are moving so fast, that it’s hard to stay focused. Now you’re starting to have headaches, racing heart, & tightness in your chest. You’re not sure what to do about it. All you know is that you don’t feel your best & feel that you’ve been letting people down. Usually things go according to plan and right now that is definitely not happening. It’s starting to become too much.
I’m Deanna. I help grad students & young professionals who are busy & burnt out to find balance & peace, so they can truly enjoy life. I use EMDR & Brainspotting to get to the root of what’s going on. Many times we try to make improvements on the surface, but there’s something deeper that keeps us stuck. Let’s break this cycle of busyness & burnout.
You want to feel more peace, connection, & joy in life. I want to help you get there! Together we can restore your energy & review your sense of self so you can feel proud of your accomplishments, take care of yourself without feeling guilty & truly enjoy Schedule a free consultation at www.littlebirdcounseling.net.
