I Choose

 

I know this is a difficult time for many people but we have to remember we do have choices. I personally choose to take this time and focus on my home, my family and myself. I choose to be grateful for having my family with me and having food and shelter. I choose to stay centered and focus on the positive. I choose to only watch the news once a day and not to allow the media to take my peace away and replace it with anxiety. I choose to follow the CDC guidelines in order to keep myself and my family and others safe. We all have choices, you can choose to be angry and bitter and defiant but your wasting good energy that could be focused on other things and people who need you. If you are quarantined without your family use Marco Polo or zoom or skype to reach out to them. If you’re bored there are several classes being held online now and some are even free. Need a project? Several hobby and craft stores ship their merchandise. Out of a job? Amazon and a few other companies are hiring for online account reps. So set a schedule and make a list of what you are lacking and what you need, and then activate that list, and stay safe my friends.

Life can weigh you down, it can be overwhelming when you are juggling loved ones, children, work, parents, trauma, grief, loss, major life changes, etc. It can make you feel as if you are carrying the world on your shoulders and sometimes you need someone to help you unload it, explore it, and release it. My approach is one of guidance. My goal is to guide you through your struggles and pain and back to your true authentic self. I am an integrated therapist who believes in treating the mind, body, and soul using various theories and techniques. I help my clients explore their feelings, challenges, and behaviors and discover where they are stemming from. I guide my clients through acknowledging those feelings and reactions and work on changing the behaviors and bringing them to a place of acceptance. I use a variety of techniques including person-centered, solution-focused, cognitive behavior therapy, expressive art therapy, meditation, brainspotting, and psychodynamics. I have created a holistic and safe environment for you to unload your worries and fears. I believe that every person is worthy of acceptance and peace and I strive to help you meet your fullest protentional and embrace your uniqueness.
