DEPRESSION & ANXIETY THERAPY

FOR WOMEN IN MERRICK, NY

AS WOMEN, WE CARRY THE WEIGHT OF THE WORLD ON OUR SHOULDERS

…and sometimes we are surrounded by people, but suffer in silence. 

Can you relate?

  • Maybe you have begun to notice that you are  feeling tense, stressed or anxious. You want to feel in control all the time, but this means you never stop worrying. 

    It’s come to the point that you’re not sleeping, because your mind never turns off. You try to rest and relax, but something inside you keeps you always on the lookout—making sure you don’t miss a thing. You put so much pressure on yourself and you are scared to let yourself or anyone else down. 

    Lately, you’ve had trouble focusing and aren’t able to get things done. You’re starting to lose energy faster, having trouble keeping track of everything. It feels impossible to make decisions with the whirlwind happening inside you. It’s dawning on you that you’re not meeting your own expectations or it feels like you can’t do anything right. At the end of the day you feel like you’re failing, but that causes you to fight harder…only leading to you feeling more drained and defeated.

  • Maybe life has brought you a change that has caused you to lose your center and your sense of self. Maybe you’ve lost a loved one or an important relationship. Maybe you are dealing with divorce, a medical diagnosis, or caretaking for a family member dealing with health issues. 

    Maybe your life change is bittersweet like becoming a parent or grandparent or sending your kids to college. Even though you gain something, you also lose something, causing conflicted feelings and a sense of sadness and grief. 

    Maybe you’re feeling aimless and not sure who you are or what to do with yourself these days. The person you were and the life you had feel like they are out of reach and you don’t really know how to exist in this new world. You’re feeling alone, lost, and out of touch. You don’t seem to have interest in the people or things that used to light you up or bring you joy. You want to feel vibrant and alive again, but right now the light inside is dim and you’re not sure how to reignite the flame.

I’M HERE FOR YOU.

You’ve made it this far, so together let’s move into the next chapter with a greater sense of purpose and confidence. Let’s create more peace of mind and well-being in your life, today, and everyday to come.

BREAKDOWNS OFTEN LEAD TO BREAKTHROUGHS.

Whether you are dealing with the loss of a person, a relationship, your health, or the picture of who you thought you were supposed to be, change can be difficult.  When we experience loss, deep disappointments, or a sense of failure this can lead to a breakdown.

But breakdowns lead to breakthroughs. They allow us to discover new parts of ourselves and shed old baggage or beliefs that have held us back. It takes bravery to welcome a new chapter in your story, and embracing a new way of living can release greater freedom and joy! 

I’m here to support you to build a new foundation of self-understanding and self-love. We can reflect together on the ways that you shine and the places that you want to continue to blossom and grow. This journey will lead you to regain your self-confidence and self-esteem, unlocking new vibrancy and fresh hope for the life that is still ahead of you.
