Do you struggle in your relationships with those you care about? Do you find yourself getting really frustrated, even doubting yourself when talking to your family or friends? You may worry about being judged, and find it difficult to trust people. Struggling to cope can lead to feeling anxious, depressed, or even having panic attacks. When we feel overwhelmed, and frequently second guess what we do and say, it makes all of life's challenges so much harder.
If you have grown up in a dysfunctional family, with an alcoholic, mentally ill, or abusive parent, it can leave you struggling to feel in control in relationships. Looking at how past situations and relationships impact how we view ourselves, and events in the present is helpful for making positive changes.
Through interactive and insight-oriented therapy, I can help you understand your reactions, and seek alternatives to your negative thinking, and mistaken beliefs you have about your self and others. I provide coping strategies for you to address your anxiety, increase assertiveness and self-confidence. I'd like to help.
