🌿 Navigating Life Transitions & Overcoming Anxiety 🌿

Change is hard. Whether it’s a new job, a big move, a relationship shift, or stepping into the unknown—life transitions can stir up anxiety and fear. But here’s the truth: standing still in fear is far worse than moving forward, even if you’re unsure of the exact direction.

Through open conversation, we can explore your worries, unpack anxieties, and find a path forward that feels right for you. You don’t have to face change alone—I’m here to help.

When we say “yes” and want to say “no,” we are doing a disservice to ourselves and the person we are saying yes to.

But if I said yes to them, how is that hurting them?

You deny them the opportunity to grow. While this may be uncomfortable (for you) and cause them initial disappointment, they have to pivot and move in a different direction.

Your no could be someone else’s yes.

For example, a neighbor asks you to look after her kids in the morning. You have been looking forward to this quiet morning all week and can’t take this on. You say yes because she seems in a pinch, and you’re “a good person.” (Saying no, yuck, that feels so uncomfortable. She will think I’m a bad person.)

Saying no: I am so sorry you are in a pinch. I can’t help this morning, but you know I would be happy to assist in the future.

Neighbor: Oh. Okay, for sure. I’ll see you soon! She reaches out to the teenager down the street, saving for a car.

Teenager: overwhelming YES!

The neighbor had to pivot in HER pinch, NOT your pinch. You said no to her and yes to yourself, giving the person (teenager) who was meant to be there the opportunity to do so!

Start practicing saying yes to yourself. You’ve got this! 💜

You slowly sacrifice who you are as an individual to maintain the relationship.

Relationships are built on trust and safety: knowing it’s safe to go to your partner when things are tough. You should be able to trust that you will be met with respect, love, and openness.

When the opposite is shown, and you concede, you start to lose trust and safety within yourself.

Stop and pause. While conflict hurts, so does losing yourself to avoid it.

This place within a relationship can feel incredibly lonely and scary. Reach out. You don’t have to navigate this alone. You’ve got this. 💜

Have you ever experienced hangxiety? 🧠

While alcohol may provide temporary relief or relaxation, it can also exacerbate feelings of anxiety in the long run. 👎🏼

By becoming mindful of how alcohol impacts your anxiety, you can take steps towards self-care and managing your anxiety more effectively.

Remember, it’s important to prioritize your mental health, and understanding the relationship between alcohol and anxiety can be powerful.

And the list goes on… 💫

Therapy is not just for addressing mental health issues, but it can also help with everyday concerns.

Many clients come to therapy to:
🌟 Improve their communication with their partner or family
🌟 Deal with stress from the workplace
🌟 Work through a difficult life transition
🌟 To gain a better understanding of their selves
🌟 Have a safe space to talk through their feelings

If you’re struggling with any of these concerns, therapy may be a helpful option. Remember, it’s okay to prioritize your mental health and well-being. You’ve got this. 💜

Courage? Yes, often lots of courage.

* Showing up for yourself, maybe for the first time in your life, takes courage

* Sharing your deepest feelings takes courage

* Making a conscious decision to talk about things you promised yourself you’d never speak about again takes courage

* Releasing control takes courage

* Sharing the space of therapy takes courage

And each time you do, you’re practicing vulnerability. The vulnerability to grow, heal, love, be loved, and so forth. I am constantly reminding my clients of how brave they are. Often, more courageous than you think. You’ve got this. 💜
