Sometimes life just isn’t working for us anymore. It’s easy to feel stuck — suddenly the tools we have aren’t effective and it’s hard to know why. I often hear statements like:

• My brain is going a mile a minute and I can’t stop worrying. If something doesn’t change, I’m going to lose it.
• Growing up, my faith was such an important part of my life. Recently it’s been falling apart, and I can’t stop thinking about the harm it did to me. How do I move forward?
• I want a marriage and a family that’s different from what I had growing up, but I don’t know how to get there.
• Pregnancy was supposed to be an exciting and beautiful experience. Why do I feel so terrified and sad?
• After our baby was born nothing seemed to work the way it used to. Even though I love my baby, and my partner and I are struggling. I miss my old life.

I hear hurt and frustration in these voices; they wish the pain would go away but are afraid it may never get better. My goal for every client is that by working together we can develop a new path forward that allows them to find a freer sense of self, enabling them to thrive in relationships and live a vibrant and satisfying life.
