‘‘ I Really Don't Have Time or the Headspace for Therapy’’

Guess what! I hear this in nearly every initial consultation with busy professionals and it's a legitimate concern. I understand that you're already stretched thin to the max.

But here's what several clients have told me after a few months of working together..."I wasn't seeing how much time anxiety was already taking."
One client realised she was spending hours each day in anxious rumination and replaying conversations, second-guessing her decisions, worrying about things that hadn't happened yet. She wasn't calling it "anxiety time" because she normalised her anxiety and just thought that was normal.
Another client said, "I thought I couldn't spare an hour a week but I was already losing hours to avoidance, procrastination, and poor sleep. I just didn't connect the dots."

I have noticed time and time again how this mind shift often plays out.
Before therapy your mental energy is consumed by worry, you have difficulty concentrating, your avoidance creates more stress and sleepless nights.
After consistent therapeutic work you begin to experience more mental clarity, improvement in your decision-making, getting better quality of sleep and more energy for what matters in your life.
Truth is therapy can be life changing. The transformative process may involve deep work as it can be challenging at times, yet rewarding as many clients discover that addressing their anxiety doesn't just improve how they feel. It improves their capacity to show up fully in their work and relationships.
I would say therapy typically takes several months to a year for meaningful change. It's an investment of your time and emotional energy and for many people it's the investment that changes their quality of life.

If you're curious about what this might look like for you, I offer a free 15-20minute consultation to help deepen your self-awareness and enable you to experience a journey of self-discovery, emotional resilience and authenticity.
