Over the last two decades, I have worked with countless individuals dealing with serious challenges like Anxiety, Depression, BiPolar Disorder, PTSD and more. When you’re feeling down, jittery or nervous, avoiding going outside to socialize (in Pre-Covid days this was especially valid), avoiding communicating with friends and family via zoom, text or phone….. and those feeling do not go away or improve over several weeks, that can be a sign that you need to explore professional help.
A therapist (LCSW, Counselor, LMSW, Psychiatrist or Psychologist) can be the key to helping you get back to a place where you felt more yourself and are able to function and just feel okay, or even feel good again.
When myself or a member of my team meets with a new client now, we first speak with them during a phone or video consultation, then we schedule a session with them. After that comes the actual assessment. AmiraForHer.com AmiraForHim.com
Then the work begins, the process of learning and understanding you as a new client is underway. And at times there is additional support and products we recommend as part of the self care that is very important for clients.
Calming Teas, herbs, supplements, a routine and schedule are all potentially useful additions to therapy.
