SPRINGTIME IS HERE!
Jessica Stage, MSW, Registered Clinical Social Work Intern
Although the weather is still chilly, it is nearly March! What have you accomplished since January? Have some of your resolutions been neglected or forgotten? Spring is a time of new beginnings and the perfect time to speak to one of the Orlando life coaches or therapists at Life Skills Resource Group!
Spring cleaning is not just for your house! Your mind may have negative thoughts or anxious feelings that have outstayed their welcome. You may not realize how often you tell yourself that “I can’t do that!” or “they probably wouldn’t think I was capable”. There could be an opportunity for a great new career or meaningful relationship out there that you have overlooked due to not thinking you are worth it. A therapist can help you to find the faith in yourself that has been missing, assisting you to become more assertive and less anxious.
A bad habit can develop over a lifetime, but do not require many years to overcome! A counselor can share proven techniques that will empower you to end negative thought and behavior patterns. You may use food to give yourself a “reward” but wind up feeling guilty after overindulging. You may be so anxious that you don’t speak up enough at work, and get passed over for a promotion. Your angry outbursts may be threatening your relationship. These challenges are in your power to control, and overcome!
