You are tired of being told “stop worrying so much” and “just let it go”. This only makes you feel more alone and judged. Perhaps you have stopped talking about your worries to others. They don’t understand anyway. You know you overthink things. You just do not know how to stop it. You choke back tears at work and at home, trying to fake it until you make it. You are tired. You are really tired. You find yourself lost in the looping ‘what-if’s’ and struggle in concentrating at times. It is hard to sleep at night: You stare at the ceiling, desperate to sleep, wishing you knew how to quiet that chatter in your mind. You might even drink or take substances with the hope of managing the fear, panic and stress. You look at others and wish you could be like them–seemingly carefree and able to enjoy life. You feel lost, stressed and stuck. Your body hurts. You get sick a lot. You know this is not good for you but you just do not know what to do to stop it all from happening.
It may sound strange, but anxiety is actually a normal and adaptive emotion. Even more odd, anxiety has likely motivated you and encouraged you to keep going when others would have stopped. However, youvmay feel like it has taken over your life. The positive news is that you CAN learn to manage anxiety so it no longer manages YOU.
Wouldn’t it be nice if you could just switch off the anxiety like a light switch? Your worry is not a choice. I understand that you do not ‘choose’ to be so worried that your head and stomach hurt. That is why I offer this service: I can help teach you skills to keep anxiety from ruling your life. This may include work around learning to be present and not in that loop in your head so much. You can learn to set realistic expectations and boundaries that allow for balance but that continue to encourage you to be the productive person that you are. Fear is a huge contributor to anxiety, as well as as avoidance. Thus, you may have patterns around evading criticism, avoiding disappointing others, or a core level fear of failure. You may be striving hard to avoid these painful situations that you have created a negative loop that is even more hurtful to you. I can help you break this pattern and create a new and rewarding one.
I can help you to feel more calm, balanced, and joyful. I invite you to call or email me and get started today. Feel free to email me at [email protected] or WhatsApp 6122405164. You may also message me by clicking the link below.
