Are you experiencing problems - like those in the green bar - in coping with stress in unhealthy ways or engaging in unwanted behaviors or habits? If so, you have come to the right place. We are here to help you create the emotional and physical well-being you have always wanted for yourself.
If you are managing stress in unhealthy ways, or if your own determined efforts to change unwanted behaviors or habits haven't brought about lasting improvements, you are taking care of yourself in seeking psychotherapy to support you in making these changes. Even when you know what is best, you can't always stop doing something you know isn't good for you (e.g., emotional eating, procrastinating) or start doing something you know would be better (e.g., exercising, setting priorities and following through).
