“We don’t have to do all of it alone. We were never meant to.” – Brene Brown
It doesn’t have to be so hard.
You feel overwhelmed and stressed. Worries and fears keep you up at night. You feel disconnected from your partner. You try to be strong and give your best to keep everyone happy: your kids, your partner, your family, your boss.
You know you need to take care of yourself too. You hope that at the end of the day you can squeeze in a few minutes for yourself, but that rarely happens. It feels like you’re juggling too many things in your life. It is so exhausting, almost like you can’t breathe. You feel an overwhelming sense of discouragement and hopelessness.
What if you could take a deep breath and feel at peace?
It’s possible! I am here to help you.
With a safe space and a judgement-free environment during our therapy sessions, you can finally let go and say the things that you have needed to say for a long time. We will strengthen your ability to take time for yourself and not feel guilty about it. You will learn new skills and strategies to help you overcome the negative thoughts that have been holding you back. Together we will nourish your strengths so you can see your amazing true self again.
Hi, I am Katrin. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC
Everyone needs a little encouragement every now and then. It’s brave to ask for help and it’s the first step towards a positive shift in your life and amazing personal growth. I will take time to listen carefully and get to know the whole you and will be by your side through the ups and downs of your therapy journey: encouraging you during the tough times and being your cheerleader to celebrate your growth while always reminding you to look up and stand proud.
I offer Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and related psychotherapy approaches like Acceptance and Commitment Therapy or Schema Therapy. Depending on your goals and current needs I combine these approaches in a unique way while following three core values:
Clarity - finding your inner compass
We will work together to help you find and be mindful of your personal values and beliefs. This will become your inner compass, which will guide you to set the right goals and to create a meaningful and vibrant life.
Change – new mindset, new results
You will learn to be aware of your patterns of maladaptive thoughts which lead to the negative emotions and behavior that keep you stuck. This will empower you to change your thoughts into ones which are more helpful and encourage effective behavior that is linked with your core values.
Resilience – boost your confidence
I will guide you towards accepting the things that you cannot control. This will help you let go of worries and fears which drain your energy. You will gain peace of mind and the confidence that you can handle future struggles. My goal is to help you to embrace every part of who you are, even the undesirable parts, and to help you establish an authentic, loving sense of self.
