Like if you're feeling anxious. Having panic attacks for what feels like no reason. Scared to do the things you used to do. Like everything is too much. That's exactly when you have to put that overwhelm to one side and ask someone for help. See? Weird.
I have two thoughts here.
The first is that you don't need to wait until life feels too much to reach out for therapy. Sometimes the best work is done when you're in a better place and able to reflect on what's going on for you.
If you're feeling anxious right now, the second thought is for you. You can contact me by filling in this form. I'll email you back, suggest some dates, and once we find a time that works for both of us, we can meet regularly, usually weekly, to talk through what's on your mind.
As I think about you, I wonder if you're wondering whether your anxiety is too much for me. It's not. I wonder if you're wondering whether you can tell me all of it, not just the curated version you tell your friends, because it feels like such a lot. You can. I wonder if you're wondering whether I can make a difference. Whether anyone can.
What therapy does is give you a place to talk about what's on your mind. It could be your anxiety. It could be a conversation you had at work last week. It could be an argument you had ten years ago that still bugs you. And once you talk about something, once you give it some air, it becomes something we can look at together, understand together, and find a way forward through, together.
I can't promise you an instant cure after one session. But I can promise you a place where you'll be met with acceptance and understanding.
Now, that doesn't feel too scary, does it?
