Considering therapy is a big step. Connecting with your therapist and following through past your fear can be scary and difficult at times. In this Short Talk with Scott, I discuss the importance of giving yourself 90 days to see if things turn around for you. Check it out: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L6ZpjtG1hpw

Please check out my video, whereas I talk about the 3 reasons why people often don’t get the assistance they may need. Feedback is always appreciated.
My clients often think they have to know all of the steps and have every detail planned out and perfect before they can start to make changes. But what I teach them is that they will never feel 100% ready, and more often than not, they are ready right now.
You don’t have to have all your ducks in a row to get started on working on you, working on a project, etc.
Start with what you have and what you know, exactly where you are.
Give yourself credit because starting is the hardest part, and we all have to start somewhere. When things get messy, remember how far you’ve already come.
If not today, when?
If you’ve been waiting to be ready or need help figuring out some of the steps, TODAY is YOUR day! Call me to get started. I can be reached here, at (414) 881-7401.
It’s August 1st, so let’s start this month of right. Say it with me!!You are not alone. I repeat, you are not alone.
At times it may feel like you’re the only one struggling. Like you’re the only one that knows what you’re going through.
According to the National Alliance on Mental Health, 1 in 5 adults experience mental illness. That means whatever you’re struggling with, chances are you are not the only one struggling.
Maybe your relationship is struggling since being quarantined. Or your kids are not on a schedule. Or it feels like life is just passing you by. Even though at times it may feel like we are the only one struggling in this way, we have to remind ourselves that we are not alone.
If you need someone to talk to, who understands what you’re going through, give me a call or text me at (414) 881-7401.
While staying in contact with friends and loved ones is important, asking “how are you?” can seem habitual. It’s is a perfectly normal way to begin a conversation or meeting and understood as a polite way to express concern, to which “I’m fine” or “Good” are socially acceptable responses. But is “how are you?” really an honest question that solicits an honest response (especially during a pandemic)?
Next time you’re checking in, try using one of these questions instead.
🔉 Have you been sleeping ok?
🔉 How are you taking care of yourself today?
🔉 Checking in on you! I’m here if you need me.
🔉 What habit have you started or stopped recently?
🔉 How have you managed stress?
🔉 How can I support you today?
🔉 Is there anything you need to want to talk about?
The last several months may have knocked you for a loop or derailed some of your dreams and/or plans. Have to keep in mind to stay healthy physically and mentally, so when this passes, you will be able to ready to move forward.
When you feel like you’re down for the count, like the dream is too far out of reach remember ‘You Got This!’ Get back on your feet and keep going.
You can use this ‘challenge’ to keep moving forward even when things are difficult. Dodge excuses that keep you stuck in place. Embrace the inner strength and confidence, and put in the hard work to accomplish your goals. The choice is yours, you can either stay down for the count, or you can stand up to whatever you’re facing right now.

In difficult times, we can easily get overwhelmed by what’s going wrong, or everything that is missing in our lives. We can lose sight of all of the good that surrounds us. But that doesn’t mean the good isn’t there. The good is always there, we just need to start to see it again. The way we do that is through gratitude.Once again, about 1.5 months into this social distance lock-down, there is a ton going on in the world right now. Schools are closed, jobs are being cut, businesses are being lost, the future is uncertain. All of these things are enough to create anxiety, then add the everyday worries.
Here’s your gentle reminder that not everything that weighs you down is yours to carry. You don’t have to go this alone.
I believe we can all gain from talking to someone when things get rough. And it’s definitely rough out there right now.
If things are weighing you down right now, call me to see if I can help.
