Do you find yourself reacting to situations and then beating yourself up in your mind? Would you talk to a friend like you talk to yourself? Are you aware of the negativity in your life, but stuck in its grips? Is social media increasing your self comparisons and lowering your self compassion? Our attachments create suffering. When we gain awareness into our behaviors, thoughts and feelings; we create space. That space is a choice point to make change. What daily practice works for you to maintain emotional regulation, connection to your inner stillness and balance? These are things we can uncover together through the therapeutic relationship.  

The last few years have been challenging and uprooting for all of us.  Maybe you had to move, lost a loved one, changed jobs, changed relationship status, fought the pandemic on the front lines or finally did some self-reflection.  These past few years have brought on so much change, turmoil and chronic stress.  This has an impact on our well-being, mind and all our senses.  The trauma is the feelings left behind, not the fixed event in time (Gabor Mate, The Myth of Normal 2022).  Our body is an amazing vessel that is directly affected by our mind as much as life interrupters.  When one integral of our life equation transitions, the other integrals are directly influenced.  Without the awareness into how those changes influence our lives, we can create negative habit loops like worry and tension.  Through the therapeutic relationship and the weekly practice, of just showing up and willingness, we can gain the awareness into the reactions,  behaviors, beliefs and needs that life gives us all.

Therapy is a supportive relationship with a trusted and educated clinician who will act as your partner on your life journey. Within the therapeutic relationship you will set goals and learn personalized therapeutic skills to help create space between feelings and reactions.  At Stetson Therapy, we offer a weekly selfish hour to gain insights into your automatic responses to life.  The more conscious we are into our responses, the more space created, allowing us to make new choices towards our intentional values which have a compound interest.  The more aware we are, of who we are, the more we can show up for our feelings with compassion and curiosity rather than criticism,  the urge to fix or indulge or repress our feelings.  Therapy is a safe and healing place for you to find joy and water the seeds of positivity in your life.
