You keep your struggle to yourself.
You have been dealing with your worry by keeping yourself occupied, distracted, and busy. But now you’re either drained or the feelings of fear and doubt have become overwhelming.
You’re hesitant to reach out for help.
In theory, seeking help makes sense, but you’ve put it off.
The thought of talking about what you’re thinking and feeling might have led you into a panic.
You might believe that dealing with emotions is a sign of weakness.
You don’t want to be judged or seen as ungrateful.
You think that maybe if you keep going, this will just go away.
Others seem to be so carefree, so why can’t I just be like that somehow?
Here’s your permission to seek help.
You say yes to other people, you are empathetic, and you might even put others' needs before your own. You believe others are deserving of support, which they are, but so are you.
You’ve looked into what to expect from therapy.
You might have researched therapy, and came across vague descriptions. You want to know exactly what therapy entails because, at this point, you want solutions.
Or, you’ve tried therapy in the past and you were either disappointed or didn’t receive the assistance you were looking for.
You’re wondering why I should be your therapist and what exactly this will look like.
I blend my curiosity and problem-solving ability with a non-judgmental and empathetic stance. We sit in this distressing space together and we explore factors that are influencing your experience, practice strategies to respond to your distress, reflect on your relationships, and explore how you can move forward in a way that is in line with your goals and values.
I honor our time together by designating a time slot just for you. Weekly sessions are required because research has shown that weekly therapy leads to the best outcomes in therapy; however, I wouldn’t want to hold you back from growth, so as you make progress in therapy and towards your goals, we decrease the frequency to every other week, every three weeks, monthly, and so on, leading to the final termination session.
