Counseling for Anxiety
You have a constantly running, never ending to do list in your head. You are constantly in flight or fight mode. Due to this, you become overwhelmed and exhausted easily. You have days you get everything done, and days where you are so tired you barely get anything done. You find it hard to get out of the mindless scrolling on social media. You want to make changes but have difficulty implementing them and continuously fall back into the same patterns that are not helpful for your growth.
You feel like your tolerance is lower than usual - and you become snappy with the people around you. This may be in your personal life with your significant other, a family member, friend, or maybe it’s with a coworker. You feel exhausted and your sleep is disturbed. Even if you get enough sleep you still feel exhausted. You have trouble making small decisions and continue to look to others for answers for yourself. Remaining in a state of self doubt is taking its toll on your wellbeing. You’d rather endlessly scroll on tiktok to distract yourself from the responsibilities that are awaiting you.
You are not alone!
Anxiety is one of the most common mental illness in the United States. We all feel anxious sometimes, it's when it becomes too continuous and intense, that it begins intervening with our daily living and quality of life.

Counseling for Depression
Are you always down and feel empty? Do you have low motivation and energy? Getting out of bed feels difficult and sometimes your tolerance for faking "everything is okay" is low. You cry easily or get agitated easily. Do others see you as successful, but you feel like your drowning? You no longer enjoy things you used to enjoy and you feel unworthy.
You are not alone.
Remember that therapy is not just about feeling better in the short term, it's about investing in yourself and creating a happier and healthier future.
