You have incessant thoughts pretending to have everything under control, pushing yourself to the brink of exhaustion. The imperative is to accomplish the task, meticulously scrutinizing every detail and consistently identifying flaws in your work.
You are driven by a deep need to validate your worth and yearn for recognition and acknowledgment. Even a slight criticism or lack of credit from others can trigger a sense of panic. Your attention becomes fixated on your perceived shortcomings, leaving you too embarrassed to face others.
In joining with you, I’m going to help you untangle the confusion you feel and articulate what you are thinking and feeling.
I will support you in letting go of all that unnecessary stress you put on yourself to reach unrealistic standards. I will help you get back control in a much healthier and satisfying way.
I’m going to reinforce caring for yourself without feeling guilty is rewarding and will help reduce your stress.
Stop the doubt about the past and even the future, figure out how you can live for today!
I’m going to help you learn to question what would all of this look like if you were to eliminate the miscellaneous stress you carry and learn to experience each day with a healthy outlook!
Understand setbacks can occur in your life, yet this is not a reason to give up, it just means you need to reevaluate and adjust your direction.
I’m someone you can rely on during this complicated time by checking in with you every step of the way, and little by little we can make sense of what’s really driving you to a breaking point.
I also like to reflect on the personal growth you have made as time goes by, just to demonstrate progress and change is possible. Progress just takes time.
What I want you to get out of therapy with me is an experience like no other. I am originally from Australia, which means I have an accent and I am laid back. I will be honest with you when you ask my opinion, I will give what I’m thinking objectively, considering all possibilities encouraging you to make the best decision for yourself.
