Therapy

Depression, fear, and anxiety are emotions that we can experience at some point in our lives. Depression can lead to anxiety and anxiety can lead to depression. Counseling and psychotherapy can help you manage such emotions and help you gain new perspectives while providing you the tools you need to undertake and continue your journey to recovery. Let's explore together what factors are contributing to these feelings and corresponding challenges.

Trauma is a response to distressing experiences that are unpredictable and unexpected, and that threaten safety, a sense of power or control, and trust.  These experiences can be recurring or one time events.  As a result, many individuals experience symptoms such as anxiety, fear,  modified view of the self or the world, and hypervigilance amongst other symptoms. Therapy can help you rebuild your resilience, learn more effective coping skills, regain or build a sense of self and trust in self and others, and accompany you through the process of grief and healing. Let's explore what stuck points are contributing to these feelings and corresponding challenges and work through them together.

 Grief is a process that can lead one to feel a mixed bag of emotions ranging from anger to numbness, to guilt, to sadness, and to loneliness.  It is a myth that grief follows a linear logical sequence of emotions or stages.  It is more frequent for one to wax and wane between stages or skip a stage altogether.  Some individuals move through grief quickly while others do not because grief is dependent on the individual and the type of loss experienced.  Therapy can help you explore and discover what you need, and what you would like and feel is important to you moving forward.  Let me accompany you on your journey and hold a space for you where you can express yourself without judgment and feel heard and valued.
