Personal Statement
Is everything overwhelming? Do you feel like things are out of control? Is it a struggle to get up every morning because you have so much to do, but you don’t even know where to start? Life is hard. Whether you have a family to take care or live alone, dealing with life’s challenges can feel impossible.
Whether you are experiencing depression, relationship problems, difficulties from past trauma, anxiety, parenting issues, or work challenges, you are not alone in desiring a better life. Handling life’s challenges on your own can seem impossible. Sometimes you need support during these difficult times in life.
It can be hard to open up to someone and talk about these painful experiences. That is why it is important to work with a therapist who is empathetic, caring, understanding, and non judgmental. I know this not only from a counseling background, but from personal experience. I experienced depression, anxiety, and feeling completely stuck in life. It took forever for me to finally reach out to someone and then to find a therapist who I connected with and was genuine. It was one of the best decisions I made to work through my struggles and have a better life.
You don’t have to be alone in this. I can provide understanding and unbiased support during these challenging life experiences. Together we can explore life stressors and learn strategies for all types of life’s challenges.
