You can feel better.

Therapy for adults in Snohomish, WA.

 

Do you feel hopeless, lost, or suffer from low self-esteem? Do you feel disconnected and unappreciated by your loved ones?

You may be unable to think clearly, or paralyzed with fear about the future, making your work and home life difficult.

Whatever it is that you are dealing with, you’re starting to recognize the impact on different areas of your life:

  • Feeling hopeless and having trouble concentrating during the day or night.

  • Suffering from sleep disturbances, experiencing muscle tension, feeling restlessness, or having no energy.

  • Feeling irritable or maybe indifferent towards others you care about.

  • Suffering from low self-esteem or being extremely critical of yourself.

 You can feel hopeful and confident again.

Individual therapy can help.

You are used to feeling like nothing can change, but you can feel at peace. You can feel hopeful again. You can feel confident again. And I can help you get there.

Relational therapy helps you do three things:

  • Allows a safe space to discover who you are and your attachment history.

  • Without judgment, you can explore your deeper self and gain insight into who you are and the areas you want to change.

  • You can leave shame behind and make sense of how you deal with stress and conflict, and learn healthier ways of coping.

I can help you through this process, devising each step to your unique needs and situation. My approach to relational therapy comes from the Psychodynamic Tradition, Bowen’s Family Systems, Narrative Therapy, and CBT: the cycle you find yourself in needs fixing, but you are not the problem.
