Anxiety has a way of distorting our perceptions, amplifying mistakes and perceived flaws. It can fuel self-doubt, intensify self-criticism, and create a constant sense of falling short.

Its impact on daily life can be significant—sometimes in ways you wouldn’t expect—which is why exploring it with a professional can be so valuable.

Common cognitive and physical symptoms of anxiety include:

• Feeling like your brain never turns off

• Believing you’re “lazy” for relaxing

• Difficulty falling asleep

• Muscle aches

Anxiety can be distressing, but it doesn’t have to be in control

Trauma can shape the way we relate to others, stir up intense emotions, manifest in physical symptoms, and reinforce patterns that hold us back.

It may feel as though the past lingers, no matter how much you try to move forward—making it difficult to recover from triggers or regain a sense of safety and stability.

Common cognitive and physical symptoms of trauma include:

• Intrusive thoughts

• Flashbacks

• Dissociation

• Anxiety

• Depression

• Fatigue

• Irritability

• Restlessness

• Emotional numbness

• chronic pain

• relationship challenges

• difficulty concentrating

Trauma therapy can help you regain your sense of safety and rediscover your true self

Depression can make it difficult to connect with others, leading to withdrawal, communication struggles, and a sense of disconnection. Over time, this can deepen feelings of loneliness, isolation, and alienation.

Common cognitive and physical symptoms of depression include:

Attachment wounds can make it challenging to build healthy relationships or walk away from unhealthy ones. Trust may feel risky, leading to emotional distance as a way to protect yourself from potential hurt.

Facing relationship struggles alone can feel overwhelming, but therapy offers a space to understand these patterns, heal past wounds, and cultivate the secure, fulfilling connections you deserve.

Common signs of attachment challenges include:

• Difficulty trusting others

• Patterns of leaving the relationship when it starts to feel “serious”

• Struggling to open up emotionally

• Fear of being abandoned or rejected 

• Frequent misunderstandings or arguments

• Sacrificing your own needs

• Feeling overly dependent

• Difficulty moving past the end of a relationship

• Patterns of pursuing emotionally unavailable partners

• Feeling lonely or dissatisfied in your current relationship

• Losing your sense of individual identity in your relationship

• And many others!

  You aren’t bound to your early attachment patterns. Developing healthier relationships is possible.

Self-esteem —it's the lens through which we see ourselves. When it’s low, it can feel like our worth is constantly in question. That inner critic? It gets louder, and feelings of shame can become all too familiar.

Low self-esteem doesn’t just stay in one area of life—it can quietly influence everything from your relationships to your overall well-being. Because of its deep impact, working with a professional can be a powerful step toward rebuilding confidence and self-worth.

Common signs of unhealthy self-esteem include:

• Experiencing self doubt 

• Often feeling shame

• Contending with negative thinking or pessimism 

• Struggling to set healthy boundaries

• Withdrawing socially

• Having an aversion to compliments 

• Questioning your self-worth

• Struggling to express yourself authentically

• And many others

  Low self-esteem can feel all-encompassing, but it doesn’t have to hold you back.

Unhealthy perfectionism can push us to set impossibly high standards, with an inner critic that constantly whispers, “not good enough.” It can make it difficult to recognize achievements, magnify perceived flaws, and fuel feelings of anxiety and restlessness.

While a healthy drive for excellence can be motivating, unchecked perfectionism can take over, affecting your well-being in ways you might not expect. That’s why exploring it with a professional can be so valuable.

Common signs of unhealthy perfectionism include:

• Delaying tasks out of fear of making mistakes 

• Constant worry and tension stemming from the pressure to be perfect

• All-or-nothing thinking

• Overworking and neglecting self-care to meet high standards

• Basing self-worth off of achievements

• Constantly feeling like you need to do more or be more

• Trouble being in the moment 

• Difficulty falling asleep 

• Overemphasizing other peoples’ opinions

• And many others!

  Let go of the perfectionism that bogs you down in exchange for the perfectionism that helps you thrive
