Are you on a crisis-to-crisis therapy merry-go-round?


​I help people get off that emergency-rinse-repeat cycle with a holistic body-mind approach to therapy.

​It is common for people to visit a therapist when they are in crisis. And then, once that event calms down, they end their sessions.

I get it. Life is busy and everything costs money. So we weigh the urgent needs against the long-term ones.

​But here's the thing, without a deep exploration into the patterns that created that crisis it almost always shows up again in a new form. 

​Below are some tips about finding a therapist and getting the most out of your treatment experience. 
S11

The Therapist-Client Relationship

Relationships require good chemistry! That includes the one with your therapist. In a consultation, you share a bit of your story and also envision what it is like to work with each other. If you decide you are not the right fit, that is also totally ok.

S11

Stay Present for New Information

In treatment, you discover new things. It is helpful to the process if you journal about them or talk to your therapist. Also, as you navigate through the world, the ability to notice new emotional information is a useful skill that improves all your relationships.

S11

Patience with the Process and Yourself

We all want to feel better quickly. But the best way for relief to last is to cultivate trust in the process. Talk with your prospective therapist upfront about expectations. And if you are having trouble believing things will get better let them know.

S11

Honesty and Vulnerability Matter

Even when it is scary or uncomfortable, the more truthful you are with your therapist the better. From experience, I can say it is a relief to speak your truth. In fact, the pressure of holding things in is much more painful than just putting them out there.

Therapy is Hard But Worth It!

The whole reason you decided to come to therapy is to feel better by breaking old emotional patterns, right?
 
I wish I could tell you it is just smooth sailing from the start, but it can be challenging. You will probably look at some tough stuff about the past and the present. Maybe evaluate how things ended up the way they are right now. And perhaps make some promises to yourself to explore new ways of being. 
​
All of that means showing up to do the work in session and then showing up for yourself in your life. While the work is challenging, the rewards improve your life and relationships for years to come.
