You’ve found APATH Counseling because you or someone you care about is struggling with anxiety, depression, and/or trauma. These things can leave you feeling isolated, exhausted, and hopeless. But there is hope! At APATH Counseling, we understand the profound impact that life’s stressors and historical experiences can have on your life influencing your level of functioning, relationships, and sense of self. If you’ve had less than nurturing experiences within your family of origin, you’ve most likely found yourself struggling with perfectionism, a harsh inner critic, setting boundaries with yourself and others, and maintaining healthy self-esteem.
When it all boils down here’s the answer that you may have overlooked: your childhood experiences are impacting your perspective, decisions, and relationships. This may be catching you by surprise or maybe it confirms what you’ve been trying so hard to ignore. You thought that when you became an adult, things would be different. You imagined and hoped that the past would be the past but this hasn’t been the case. You’ve tried to get through these challenges but haven’t been able to despite your very best efforts.
Life’s challenges can be so overwhelming yet it is commonly believed that participating in therapy is an indication of being weak. Actually, therapy is a place for anyone who has been doing the best they can with what they have and what they know thus far. There’s nothing weak about that! Whatever led you to consider therapy as an option for the challenges that you are experiencing, kudos to you. If you want to move from consideration to commitment, let’s connect.
