Holistic Counseling
Find balance in the chaos. Rediscover yourself on the journey.
Holistic counseling & wellness for women & teen girls in Cary, NC
let’s be honest:
Have you lost yourself in all the demands of life?
Your life isn’t what you thought it would be. You’ve bent over backwards to try to achieve the toned body, impeccable marriage, perfect kids, spotless house, and Pinterest-worthy home cooked meals. But you never measure up to your own standards. You may even have the family and/or job of your dreams, but you still feel empty. You think ”If people only knew what things are really like... Surely everyone else has their act together…If I just try harder it will all be okay.” The overwhelm and exhaustion of your day-to-day leaves you spent and with a short fuse. This strains relationships with the people you love the most.
The thoughts in your head are never ending. Decisions don’t get made because the worry and “what ifs” leave you feeling paralyzed with fear.
You try and try to gain a sense of control over life, but never attain it and feel like you’re in constant chaos. This leaves you feeling vulnerable, insecure, lonely, rejected, and hopeless. Then you hate yourself for feeling that way.
You don’t know who you are anymore. The pressure to perform and the negative self talk becomes louder and louder until it’s all you hear. It affects your physical health, your spiritual life, and your relationships. You can’t keep living like this.
