Epiphany Integrative Mental Health

“I know things are fine so why do I keep waiting for the other shoe to drop?” So you think to yourself… Advancing in my career. ✓ In a stable romantic relationship. ✓ Have a group of close friends. ✓ Still feeling totally alone and misunderstood. ✓ At home: Your partner is frustrated with you because you just don’t want to go out. You don’t want to spend time with their friends or deal with their family. You wish you could tell them how hard it is to even get out of bed in the morning. You think by now they should get it but they keep asking the same questions and you feel like the divide is growing. At work: It doesn’t matter how many compliments you get on your performance you feel like a fraud. You are constantly just trying not to be “found out” for not being good enough. Inside: You’ve stopped trying to put yourself out there because no one gets you. For crying out loud you don’t even get you. Let’s be real though, the truth is you really don’t want to try to explain yourself because you know that if they knew your whole story they might never look at you the same way again. Now: The cracks are starting to show. You can’t keep yourself from crying at home, or at work, when you were so good at hiding it before. Your partner sees you jumping at the littlest things and noticing the anxiety you have been hiding. The more you try to get your control back, the more it slips away. You’re between a rock and a hard place. You either have to tell them what’s happening so they understand why you can’t sleep at night or run the risk of them reaching their breaking point with you. So what’s next? Imagine a world where you are not chased in your dreams. Where you can confidently and easily navigate day to day shit the way other people seem to. You know that thing…. The one you wish never happened EVERY. SINGLE. DAY. . What if it really were a thing of the past? What if you were not sickened by the thought of it on a daily basis? On the other side, you will be able to have greater control over your life and feel confident in handling the day to day. You can understand yourself better and instead of an inner critic you will have a compassionate friend. You can finally feel peace, calm, and in control. Hi, Beth here! I think I have a pretty good sense of humor (I’d have to with this hairdo, right!? and one of my quirks is always having two or more drinks at the ready. I help medical professional women growing in their careers to be able to feel more in control of themselves and stop sabotaging their relationships by shutting out their partners. Together we will help you identify those things contributing to the moments you don’t understand yourself. We will journey together from scratching your head or banging it on the desk to confidence and pride. You will see yourself no longer reacting but carefully responding and choosing how to move forward. At the end of the day you don’t deserve to live a partial or unfulfilling life undermined/sabotaged by the things that happened in the past. You can have a full life after trauma. I know, I know, but your situation/story is different. You’ve tried the things before. You lost hope in that fairytale future a long time ago. That’s ok too. Actually, if you told me differently that would be the real surprise. You know you need someone to get real with today so lets get started!
