I am a Therapist in Temecula and I can Help
You toss and turn all night. You struggle with thoughts of not being good enough. Your anxiety just won't leave you alone. Even though you try, you find it difficult to get through a day without feeling responsible for everyone around you. You try really hard to make everyone else happy and sometimes it works for them, but not for you. You feel uncomfortable in your own skin.
You may find yourself on high alert and feeling anxious about every moment of your day. You worry about what you say and what you do. You have been struggling to let go of the negative beliefs about yourself. You have gotten good at pretending that everything is okay and that the past is in the past, but it just keeps showing up. You feel anxious and depressed and thoughts like “ I am not good enough” continue to play in your mind.
Negative messages often get in the way of us living the life we desire. Understanding how to replace the negative, automatic thoughts with the positive is one of the keys to daring greatly and achieving what we want out of life. If you desire a life where relationships are fulfilling and everyday living is filled with more joy please call me today so that we can get started on this journey.
You are ready for a real change
Perhaps you have tried traditional talk therapy but you feel like there is more that you can do to feel better. You may have tried meditation and deep breathing which helps some but still you think that you could feel better. You wish you could just turn off those anxious thoughts. You believe that there is more to learn about yourself and ways to feel happier. You are ready for someone to support you.
