Self-esteem issues...
​
​
Anxiety
When life feels overwhelming, your clinician can help you gain new insights into the sources of your anxiety and learn new ways to manage anxious thoughts and feelings.
Depression
Everyone feels sad sometimes, but when you struggle to feel joy in your everyday life, your clinician can help you to better understand and manage your depressive symptoms.
Trauma
From single event to complex, post-traumatic stress, trauma-focused therapy can help you process and recover from traumatic experiences, fostering resilience and strength.
Stress Management
Stress is an expected part of everyday life, but when it overshadows your skills and achievements, your clinician can help you access your own inherent strengths to keep stress in its place.
Anger Management
Every feeling is valid, including anger; but when emotions feel out of control, your clinician can help you understand the underlying reasons for your angry feelings and learn to keep them in check.
Resilience
Self-esteem and resilience are essential to emotional health and well-being. Working with your clinician can help you recognize your strengths and build effective skills to manage life's daily challenges.
When you choose Begin for your therapy experience, I'll help you evaluate your thoughts, emotions, and responses, as well as recognize and apply your own unique strengths and resources. Together, we'll work to help you reclaim your sense of self, your sense of accomplishment, and your joy for life. I'll also help you process any past experiences or traumas that have been holding you back (e.g., EMDR therapy).
