We survive because of the motivation that low levels of anxiety gift us. When those low levels start to skyrocket, it hijacks our nervous system and makes connecting to ourselves and to others challenging. In therapy, we get to build skills to combat times of discomfort, nervousness, and anxiety, as well as symptoms related to panic, trauma, depression, etc. Therapy is not just for those with debilitating pain. It is also for those of us who are wildly curious about unwrapping ourselves to seek truth and fulfillment and live boldly. It is for those of us ready to step into our stories and tell them from a place of authenticity and bravery.
