From Here to Better

Grief and Loss

Finding your way forward

When it comes to grief and loss, most of us struggle to even know where to begin. That’s normal, as grief & loss can look so different with each of us and be centered around a diverse focus.  Finding a safe & directing environment to process grief and loss, with support, can help people “find their way forward”, without ever leaving behind the ones or things that meant so much.

Depression

Finding Hope

For those dealing with depression, it’s hard to capture just how debilitating it can be, all the while to look like it isn’t. On the outside, one can look like nothing is wrong - all the while struggling to just get out of bed, be present with those around them or even just enjoy life.  There is help for depression - you can learn to understand it, how it engages with us and ways to manage & decrease its impact on your life.

Life Change/Phases of Life

Navigating Change

Part of the human experience is change.  Sometimes change is exciting and brings even greater joy into our lives.  Sometimes though, we experience change we weren't ready for - whether suddenly or, as part of a transition to another phase of our life.  These types of changes can be disorienting or can "knock us off our feet" a bit, leaving us feeling less stable and uncertain of direction.  

When this happens, find someone to journey with you as you "find your way" through it.  We focus on re-centering around your values, identifying your sources of strength, processing any associated areas of grief and adhering to your guiding principles to bring empowerment to a time that can feel so disempowering.

ADHD

Slowing Down the Inside

ADHD is one of the more misunderstood mental health struggles.  Most see it as just having "high energy".  In reality, ADHD isn't really that - it's the struggle to focus, be present, remember to follow through, and the identity-shaping impact these struggles have on those living with it.  This includes the shame cycle of missed appointments, missed conversation points, school or work focus struggles, and the daily struggle to compensate for these areas. It's often mistaken for not caring, not being dependable, or even "purposely" doing things - when that's not it at all. 
If you wonder if ADHD is affecting you, please reach out to one of our counselors. They can assess if it is, collaborate with you on a treatment approach, and help you take back control of your life that ADHD keeps undermining.

Phobias/Obsessions

Gaining Control

Living with a phobia or obsession can be a secretly debilitating experience.  Those around us don't see our struggle but we navigate our entire lives around it.  Whether it's the scary experiences associated with OCD (like unwanted thoughts & worries), or a specific phobia creating negative effects in the quality of your life, we can partner with you in finding help and solutions.
