Let’s Talk About Unprocessed Emotions

We can put a brave face on the outside, and hide from others any number of emotions happening inside us, but when those emotions escape in the form of crying "seemingly out of no where", that's a lot harder to hide. It is more than just inconvenient. It can be down right confusing.

“In therapy, I work with clients to eliminate the fear of “what if” and focus on “what is”. Where sometimes diving into the past is needed, my effort to help individuals look at their whole self, and build self-trust and self-confidence, begins with discovering what can be done in the present to guide them toward the future they desire.”
