I Enjoy Supporting Women in any Season of Life
Navigating transitions to new seasons of life
Have you found yourself in a new season or stage of life? Are you dealing with a divorce or separation, health concern or other big life change? Whether long anticipated or abrupt to arrive, welcome or dreaded, this adjustment can be disorienting as you seek to find a new purpose or meaning.
Dealing with grief and loss
Losing a loved one, whether through death or the ending of a long-term relationship, can be completely disorienting. Culturally, we are given unreasonable expectations about needing to “move on” after a certain period of time. This can leave grieving people feeling isolated and as though they don’t have permission to be struggling. Sometimes grieving people feel they are supposed to be “over it” or ready to “move forward” by a certain time. Do you need a space to be open about the emptiness you may feel? The conflicted emotions that come with “moving forward?”
Struggling with issues with their partner or extended family
In therapy, we often end up talking about the hardest parts of our most important relationships. A safe place to discuss the tenderest parts can help bring hope and healing. Sometimes hurts from the past bubble up into present-day interactions. Would you like a safe place to explore how these things are impacting current important relationships?
Caregivers
Caregivers come in many forms. Some care for children, others for a partner or loved one with a chronic physical or mental health condition, and still others in a professional setting. All this focus on everybody else’s needs can leave you feeling burned out. Are you holding it together for everybody else? Is it time for you to take a breath and figure out what you need for yourself to feel emotionally healthier?
Helping Professionals
Therapists, health care professionals, and others in helping professions often need a safe place to reflect on their own experiences. It’s important to set aside time and space for yourself to process your own emotions, needs, and the complicated parts of your own relationships.
