Does this sound familiar?
You just want to enjoy your life but instead you feel…
-
Filled with anxiety or overwhelm on a daily basis- you worry a lot more than others and are tired of carrying the weight alone
-
Hopeless about the future or losing the belief that things will be better
-
Sad and bitter about what you’ve been through or how you’ve been treated. You might recognize you’ve been through a trauma, or you may not even realize that your daily experience has been traumatic.
-
For instance, you struggle to ask for what you need in your relationships. People-pleasing, ignoring your own boundaries, and trying to “go with the flow” leave you feeling frustrated, stuck, and unseen.
- You guilt yourself, about not being “spiritual enough” to better handle the situation. You question your faith and struggle just to get through each day.
-
You find yourself stuck in patterns that don’t feel good, but are painfully familiar. You promise yourself you’ll do things differently next time, only to fall into a shame spiral when it happens again.
It doesn’t have to be this way.
Creative Counseling Connections specializes in working with adults ages 18-64 who struggle with stress, negative thoughts and hopelessness, and grief and loss, including adult adoptees and those entering the adult world and find it overwhelming. Finally, our therapists are happy to incorporate faith as a strength-perspective, upon request.
What to expect: During the first two sessions, you can expect to fill out paperwork and share what brings you into therapy. The subsequent sessions will include not only a time to express your concerns or challenges throughout that week, but also a time to learn and practice new skills.
Modalities we use (therapist lingo):
Our therapists are trained in CBT, DBT, EMDR, CPT, TF-CBT and attachment-based theories.
