WHAT CAN YOU DO?

How about exploring Talk Therapy? It’s not old-school analysis, where you lay on a couch and spend years trying to understand yourself. Instead, you open up in order to discover your gifts – with the help and guidance of a licensed professional in a safe, confidential environment.

• Discover how to identify what you need
• Acquire the tools to get what you want
• Redefine your goals based on your values
• Learn what’s behind the depression, fear and anger
• Overcome your fear, become grounded in your own skin

You’ve spent your life doing everything so well. You’ve built a business, perhaps established a professional practice. You are clearly successful and your friends think you have it made. Sometimes you believe it, too. But mostly, you worry that everything is about to FALL APART.

And it’s not just that stress and pressure you battle... there’s also the doubt. Do you deserve all you have? Are you worthy? Maybe you really are a fraud who has managed to FOOL people all these years. You fear there is some truth to this; that the tools you’ve acquired that used to work just aren’t working anymore, and now you’ve run out of ideas.

In a counseling session, you are encouraged to speak openly about issues that concern you. The process can be described as unpacking your mental suitcase with your counselor, examining the contents together, choosing what issues to resolve and which ones to discard, then you pack up the now lighter suitcase and MOVE FORWARD.

This type of counseling is short-term – about 3 to 6 months. Weekly one-hour sessions are the most productive. Some clients return for occasional “booster sessions” to examine a particular issue, but most complete the experience feeling HEALTHIER and HAPPIER. .
