How can i help?
Depression & Anxiety
Depression and anxiety are perhaps the most common and deeply unsettling states of being for many of us. Both can deprive us of peace. Both can feel impossible to overcome and keep us from a life we wish to claim. Through patience and courageous exploration, we can cultivate motivation, change perspective, deepen understanding, and clear the way for a more meaningful life.
Trauma & PTSD
Anxiety, anger, fear, and hopelessness are but a few of the symptoms that sometimes linger after traumatic events. However, symptoms also show up in the body. Digestive issues, headaches, sexual dysfunction, and a range of other physical symptoms are often linked to unprocessed trauma. Trauma isn't what happened to you, it's how it has impacted your mind and body. Together, we can learn to understand and release your particular embodied trauma. Through slow, gentle, and collaborative exploration, healing is possible.
Authenticity
Within each of us are two fundamental human needs that often get overlooked, the need to feel securely attached to safe-enough others, and to bring our wholeness into those attachments. Many of us, because of the environments in which we grew up, learned to sacrifice one of these things in order to have the other. Perhaps you've spent your life conforming to the expectations of others, afraid to assert your innermost needs and feelings. Using a range of interventions that honor your lived experiences, you can finally begin to move toward a deeper understanding of self, and reclaim those parts of you that had to be hidden in order to feel safe.
this is vivacity counseling.
