Hello there! So, let's talk about you.
Whether its anxiety that's controlling your every move or it's dislike of the self or/and confusion as to who you really are and why you find yourself thinking in the ways that you do, I would like to help you.
Together, we can explore your anxiety by talking about it, how if feel's, what it's about & where it's coming from, allowing you to pin point the triggers & take control of it for good. Perhaps it's been there for years or it's a new feeling which has arisen, with you questioning why.
f it's attachment anxiety then we can explore your past relationships and look at where the fear and distrust and fear of connection began, allowing you an understanding of why your patterns are repeated and how to separate the past relationships from the present, be they family, friends or romantic relationships.
With Self image issues we can explore where it stems from, be it past knocks or criticism's which we can pin point where your lack of confidence and self esteem comes from and together we can strive to change your psychological narrative so you can be happy with who you are and be free from those internal voices that tell you that 'You're not good enough,'
Regardless of what, we will work together to help you to discover and FEEL your potential and allow you to be happy and proud of who stares back at you in the mirror.

About online counseling

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
