 Are You On The Fence?

Ambivalence is perfectly normal when you are trying to decide if something new will work for you.  It is easy to have grown accustomed to staying in the same place and not moving forward.  You may be weighing the pros and cons of staying put.  Have you been waiting a long time hoping that things in your life would somehow magically change on their own? You may be postponing making important decisions about your life because you don’t know where to turn next. Do you find yourself just making due with things as they are while feeling hopeless and dissatisfied? Typically, most people who struggle with difficult problems will often wait 6 months to several years before reaching out and seeking professional help.

Individual Counseling for Anxiety

Anxiety is a normal part of living resulting from some sort of stressor.  Anxiety can affect your entire being and can show up in many different forms and levels of intensity.  You can may feel it in your body by experiencing  a faster than normal heartbeat, uncomfortable queasiness or profuse sweating.  You may be unable to cope with some daily situations or have difficulty expressing yourself or taking action.  It can occur by just thinking about a troubling situation.  Many people will worry about feeling anxious which in turn produces greater anxiety.  There are many proven ways to cope successfully with anxiety and counseling with me can help you develop the necessary skills to deal with it. 

Individual Counseling for Depression

Everyone feels down in the dumps every so often, but if you notice that you can’t shake a depressed mood for two weeks or more, you may be experiencing something more severe than the “blues”.  If you have lost your appetite, sleeping less or more than usual, are irritable, snapping at others and lacking motivation, you could be suffering from depression.   Getting in touch with the thoughts, feelings and actions behind the sadness can move you from a depressed place to a place of more happiness.

Individual Counseling for Stress Reduction

Feeling stressed is also a normal part of living.  Often, how you react to stressful events will determine the severity of the impact that your stress will have on you.  You may struggle to cope with the demands from others for your time and attention or you may be stressed out simply by the way you perceive and think about the situation.  If you have persistent or chronic stress in your life, it will take a toll on you, but getting the right kind of tools will make your stress more manageable.
