Individual Therapy

What is Therapy Like?

Have you ever put off taking out the garbage ? To avoid taking it out you compress the trash down to give you more room to keep using it. The pile becomes high again yet, you attempt to delicately put one last item at the very top. Nope, the cup and several other items spill out onto the floor.

Now that the floor is covered in litter, you attempt to sort the items into recycling by yourself. Seeing everything all over the floor feels so overwhelming that you leave the mess to sit for days. You have no clue how or where to start. Is this bottle made of glass or is it plastic? You think, “How will I ever get rid of it all? I feel too embarrassed to ask for help. No one knows my life is such a mess.”

Our emotions are like this as well.

We push our emotions down, but our mind/body can only hold them so long before they spill out. By working on our issues in therapy, we get to choose when and how we want to process emotions instead of it just randomly interfering with our life when we least expect them.

individual therapy with Dr Christine Henry.

In individual therapy I will sit next to you as we go through your emotional trash together piece by piece at your own pace. This time you will NOT be alone as you comb through the mess. We will first create a sense of safety, and then I’ll show you how to identify items and put them in their proper bin. You no longer have to feel shame in asking questions or feel guilt for feeling your feelings. With this new understanding, the emotional rubbish can make its way out of your life. While there will always be trash in our lives, after therapy you will be able to sense the pile up, acknowledge it, and address it so you can move forward without it stinking up your life.
