YOU’VE BEEN STRUGGLING FOR A LONG TIME - months, maybe years. AND NO MATTER WHAT YOU TRY, NOTHING ever SEEMS TO HELP, OR THE THINGS THAT did HELP DON’T LAST LONG.

You’re hurting so deep down inside and it feels like it will never go away. The stress, anxiety, the physical pain, the ups and downs of relationships, overwhelmed feelings, emptiness, and chaos… life is hard enough without all these other hard things coming your way. And you’ve done everything to figure this out, but nothing seems to be helping. I get what its like to feel lost. To feel that no matter what you do it never feels better. To feel like you’ve tried everything out there and nothing will work. It’s overwhelming. It’s confusing.

So, you try to shut those feelings off. It seems to help for a little while, but then they come back, and now they seem worse and you’re hurting even more. I understand why feeling your feels is not safe and now your just simply feeling numb and empty. Or maybe you haven’t quite shut those feelings off and you’re experiencing big rollercoasters of feels everyday. It’s exhausting either way.

And then there’s the worry, its unstoppable some days… flashbacks and thoughts spinning around… who will I run into today and what will I say, will I be able to keep from exploding on those around me, what will I do after this big change, do these people even like me, is it safe out there… it’s like a tornado inside you and it won’t stop spinning. It’s interrupting your life - making it hard to trust, to feel, to focus, to dream, and to enjoy life. You realize that relationships are one of the hardest things to trust. So you decide that you either have to hang on extra tight or you end the relationship before they can end on you. It’s safe that way. But its lonely too, because either way people leave.

So, ya, when it seems like everyone else is happy, managing their feelings, managing all the changes that come their way, and have great relationships, you start to wonder… Am I broken?

YOU DREAM OF BEING FREE FROM THE TORNADO OF THOUGHTS.

YOU WANT TO BE HAPPY. YOU WANT TO FEEL SAFE.

You deserve to be free from those doubts, the hurt, the loneliness, and the worry.

You dream of a life free from the unstoppable worry, the intense reminders of the past, the constant doubt that you’re not worthy or good enough.

In this life, you can breathe. Ahhh. It feels great.

Relationships are safe to explore. You can trust others. And you can confidently set boundaries for relationships that are no longer healthy for you.

The big changes in life are scary but not overwhelming. When the fear arises, you know what its about and you can make clearer decisions about how to handle your situations.

When you have worry, you know how to observe it, instead of it observing you. The panic attacks are gone. You recognize that the tornado of thoughts are gone and now you can focus on your day.

Your confidence in strong and powerful so that when shame arises you know what to do. You can now tell yourself that those shame webs are LIES and they don’t belong in your life.

Wherever it comes from, whenever it began, it doesn’t have to be a life sentence. 

YOU’RE IN THE RIGHT PLACE.

Metanoia is a unique word that most people are unfamiliar with. When I began the adventure of creating my own practice I knew I wanted my name to represent the way I view therapy, a beautiful (and sometimes difficult) transformation. That's when I found the word Metanoia. Metanoia is a greek word that translates to, "change of the mind" and is commonly referred to as "the process or journey of changing one's mind, heart, self, or way of life."
