You can barely sleep through the night. Overwhelmed by thoughts and emotions, it's not just your sleep that's impacted. No matter how hard you try to throw them away, intense feelings come rushing back unexpectedly when you are at school, work, or on a moving subway train. It is hard to explain to people around you what is really going on - they wouldn't understand, or worse, they may be disappointed in you. You're exhausted living this double life; trying to appear conventionally "normal" on the outside while you're struggling alone on the inside. You want it to end, but are scared to probe deeper. This is where therapy comes in.
Together, we will build a space where you feel understood and empowered. We will unpack layers of hurt, anger, shame, and loneliness. You will gain insights to why you feel lost and stuck in your life and tools to connect to yourself and others in satisfying ways. It is possible to make the changes you desire, to live freely inside and outside.
Embarking on a therapeutic adventure can be daunting. My hope is that through my unwavering attention and faith in you, your exploration will feel tolerable, supported, and eventually rewarding. Reach out to me today and let's get started. l can't wait to get to know you.
