Once again you find yourself staring blankly out the window. You don’t see the beautiful trees or the little finches flitting by. What you do notice is how numb and tired you feel inside. Every single day feels like the one before and there is not much hope that the next day, or the next week, will be any different. The routine never changes: work, home, chores and dinner, watch some mindless TV and play on your phone until bedtime. When you get to bed, you toss and turn for hours because your mind just won’t shut off. Finally, you fall into a restless sleep, tossing and turning until the alarm goes off, and another day presents itself that is just like the one before.
You’re not quite sure what is different, but you know you are in a rut. You know your mood has been off and that you have been overthinking everything. Your uncertainty about where your life is headed has been growing steadily and you are not sure where to turn for help.
You remember a time when you knew what you wanted from life. You felt confident, knew you were smart and had goals. You want that again. You want to know yourself again, but you wonder how do I figure this out?
You’re in the right place; I am here to help you explore you so that you can live an authentic life.
My life’s work is all about helping others, people just like you, overcome their struggles with uncertainty and stress. The decision to see a counselor is not an easy one to make and you probably have a lot of questions and concerns, but I will do everything I can to address these for you and to make this step easier.
WHAT WE EXPLORE
EMDR
In 2023, Susan completed basic training in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) through the Institute for Creative Mindfulness. EMDR was developed to help people heal from trauma and has an extensive evidence base proving its effectiveness. EMDR is also an effective treatment for anxiety, panic, depression, chronic illness and pain, and relationship issues.
