You're not imagining it

Whether it's constant worry, low motivation, or feeling disconnected from things you used to enjoy, this isn't just talking about your feelings. We'll identify the patterns keeping you stuck and build tools to use between sessions, not just inside them.

Common questions

Not exactly. We'll talk, but the focus is on identifying what's keeping the anxiety or low mood going and building practical tools you can use between sessions, not just process feelings in the room.

They often show up together and share some of the same tools, but we'll pay attention to your specific pattern - racing thoughts and worry call for different strategies than low motivation and flatness.

That's very common, and we don't need a clear cause to start - we'll work with what's actually happening for you now, regardless of where it came from.
