When you're dealing with a little "rain" in your life, you may be able to cope with it on your own or with the help of friends and family. Wouldn't it be nice if life only gave you challenges you could handle, if it gave you any challenges at all? But life doesn't always work that way. When you're facing one or more challenges you don't know how to cope with, it's easy to feel overwhelmed and stuck - maybe even hopeless.
Some storms are emotional, when you get battered by moods like depression, hopelessness, anxiety or anger. At such times your mind gets flooded with upsetting thoughts. As if that's not enough, there are also the challenges of everyday life, incluing job stress, financial struggles, and health concerns - just to name a few.

About
Report
These experiences influenced me when I started my practice in 2002. Since then, many clients have told me about their frustrations with traditional forms of treatment. Some people don't want to be diagnosed or "labeled" with a mental disorder. In some cases, clients don't have a diagnosis for their struggles, they just know they're unhappy.

If you are willing to work hard, we can work together to get you on the road to recovery. You'll also develop the tools to handle future relapses, and learn to become your own therapist. Intensive therapy consists of longer sessions (two to six hours) that take place over two to 12 days. There is also therapy homework between sessions.

The other factor is your commitment to practicing the skills that you will learn in our sessions. If you're willing to do both of these things, your success in counseling is almost inevitable. Asking this question is similar to asking a personal trainer if he or she can get you in shape. If you're willing to exercise consistently, then getting in shape is just a matter of time.
Depression
Report
You may also have physical symptoms such as fatigue. Perhaps you're not eating or sleeping well. Maybe you've even gone to your physician, only to have your medical tests come back negative. When left unchecked, depression can hang over you like a cloud and fill you with pessimism, despair and hopelessness.
Anxiety
Report
If you feel more tense, nervous, or worried than usual right now, you're not alone. Even if you haven't been personally affected by the virus, you may be struggling to stay confident and productive when there is so much uncertainty surrounding the current crisis and the path to recovery. So many of us need a break from the stress and anxiety of the past few months.
