Changing with the seasons.
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

Between Covid 19, nationwide protests, and the new election cycle upon us, Stress and anxiety are on the rise…Not sure what to do? Try these tips to help you cope with it.

– Be kind to yourself (ie. self care, exercise)
– Decrease screen time
– Help others (this will help you too)
– Get some fresh air, take a walk around your neighborhood

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.
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.
We are about a month in to the Covid-19 Stay at Home Order here in Wisconsin and pretty much through out the country. They say that being aware and careful about this virus until there is some type of treatment, some aspect of what we are going through, may be our “new normal.” Here’s a good article that discusses how this may effect us emotionally. Not saying it will but if you or someone you know is struggling now or struggle with the fall-out of this later, please feel free to contact me, or pass my number along. (414) 881-7401. Thank you!!
