Feeling stuck is so common when life challenges arise in our lives. This can cause a person to struggle with making decisions. Being aware of your emotions and how those emotions can be taking over your mind is so important. If you feel like you are losing sleep, not being able to focus, feeling trapped in vicarious negative thinking, you do not need to suffer from these symptoms. You are in the right place in taking the step to come into therapy to overcome intrusive thoughts. Therapy provides the opportunity for an individual to talk freely in a non-judgmental space, with a trained professional that can help provide valuable insight on how to incorporate coping mechanisms, in order to promote a level of contentment.
