Online Anxiety and Trauma Therapy in Wellington and throughout Florida

Develop the tools to feel more relaxed, confident and joyful.

let’s be honest:

Sometimes it can be hard to turn off your thoughts and just have some peace.

Even for insightful, motivated and caring people sometimes life can be hard. You may have tried everything you can think of to manage your anxiety and still feel stuck. Perhaps you’re also struggling with painful past experiences that continue to impact you. Even though you’re doing well in many areas of your life, it’s hard to feel content. You want to move forward but aren’t sure how. Therapy can help you find what works for you!

maybe you…

Worry a lot about doing things “just right” but often feel it’s not good enough.

Your inner critic seems to always be “on” making it difficult to just feel relaxed. You wish there was an off button! Sometimes you may be concerned about what others think about you or that you’ll do or say the wrong thing. These worries can affect your work, your home life and your relationships.

Feel exhausted by having too much on your plate, but also think you should be managing life better.

You strive to do your best and are proud of how much you can accomplish. You try hard to take care of everything and everyone, but sometimes it just feels like too much. There’s a lot on your plate and you’re pulled in so many directions. Despite the overwhelm, you feel guilty or fearful about saying “no”.

Sometimes your worry affects you physically and it’s hard to feel your best.

It’s really tough to deal with the physical parts of anxiety. Trouble sleeping, feeling panicky, or feeling like your heart is pounding can make it difficult to manage day to day. Sometimes you may avoid doing things or going certain places so you won’t feel anxious. You’ve tried deep breathing and positive thinking but it hasn’t always helped.

You’ve had some challenges in the past and want to better understand how to cope with them.

You may have experienced Trauma or other difficulties in the past and it still affects you today. Sometimes it impacts how you feel about yourself, and sometimes it plays out in your relationships. You want to find ways to heal and move forward, but it’s been really hard to do.
