Individual Therapy for Adults

Something is preventing you from moving forward.

What it is, you’re not sure. You sense that something is wrong, but it is hard to pinpoint.

Instinctively, you realize that you have the right to be you. But you have difficulty verbalizing your emotions, making choices, and being happy with the decisions you made.

With me, you can feel safe to express your feelings and experiences. So you will indeed feel secure to unpack what you’ve seen, heard, and been through.

You’ll gain the insight needed to know who you truly are and what you want. Plus, one more thing – the inner strength it takes to get there.

Let’s face it. Being objective about ourselves is almost impossible.

Especially if you are trying to do it alone.

Just ignoring your feelings has not helped. And doing nothing will keep you in the place you are now.

People often tell me, “I grew up in an average family; my parents gave me so much; I don’t understand why I feel this way…”

Or they ask, “Why do I find myself in the same situations over and over?” Or they blame others for their failure to achieve lifelong goals.

Sound familiar?

Therapy is a unique opportunity to have a focused conversation, JUST ABOUT YOU.

You identify the thoughts behind your feelings and answer the questions you’ve been reluctant to ask.

Ultimately, you will gain clarity into what is holding you back, so you can resolve the issues, overcome the challenges, and chart a clear path on how to proceed.

Awareness brings about change.

Your feelings are not your fault.

We have internalized messages and belief systems from an early age from parenting figures, role models, social media, and general cultural values.

As adults, we can become conscious and choose new, more empowering messages. I will help you recognize the patterns that land you in painful places, so you can chart alternative paths and create new patterns that move you to a better place.

What messages do you tell yourself?

Some of us have endured lifetime struggles with anxiety and depression, potentially dangerous personal choices, or poor financial decisions.

Therapy offers you the opportunity to move through these circumstances with more confidence, ease, and insight.

My clients report that sharing their thoughts and feelings lifts the clouds hovering over their spirit and the weight bearing heavily on their souls. You deserve no less!

Rose’s breakup caused confusion and anxiety.

Rose* is a client who is busy in her high-paying profession. After a broken relationship, she came to me, grieving the loss, feeling confused, hurt, and stuck.

Guided questions helped Rose look inward. It motivated her to examine her values, gain clarity toward desired partner qualities, and appreciate her positive attributes in this time of self-doubt.

Through the ability to tell her story, Rose could objectively see the dynamics of the relationship and her part in it.

Therapy helped Rose gain clarity and feel validated.

Although those events are still painful, Rose has gained a focus.

She realized she was repeating dynamics from her family history, in which she had learned to process feelings in ways that were destructive rather than constructive.

Rose doesn’t want to repeat history and is thirsty to learn about healthy boundaries, allowing her to see a positive future.

Therapy helps you move forward

Therapy will give you a broader perspective and a springboard to move forward.

You won’t remain stuck because our work together will bring resolution.

Our journey together will explore and unpack emotions that are often messages from a deeper place, giving a name to them − anything from anger, fear, sadness, joy, and helplessness.

If you don’t deal with difficult emotions, they can intensify. If you cannot acknowledge your feelings, those feelings can take a toll on you both emotionally and physically, causing conditions such as depression, anxiety, heart disease, and even cancer.

Listen to whispers before they are screams. Our ability to move through complicated feelings will give you more confidence in your own life and comfort your ability to live in your skin.

Move forward with greater awareness and confidence.

You’ve done a pretty good job of going on with life and functioning despite the confusion you feel.

Nevertheless, sharing your feelings with someone who can listen, clarify, and validate your sensitivity and your self-worth is the best and most valuable gift you can give to yourself.

My holistic approach focuses on mind, body, and soul. I will work with you to address the factors driving your underlying pain and overwhelming emotions.

Together, we will make your life journey all that it can be.

Testimonial

“Taibke Hyman is the most empathetic, easiest to talk to therapist I’ve had in the 20+ years I’ve received professional mental health counseling.

Her warm, easy-going demeanor helps draw you in. After several sessions with her, you also realize she has a very pragmatic, goal-oriented approach to solving the many day-to-day problems that often pop up in our lives. And she’s not afraid to hold you accountable to the promises you made to yourself and others!

I found her insights particularly useful when sharing my family’s history of ethnic and political persecution, which led me to work in social justice issues with varying degrees of success. Her natural maternal instincts were very comforting during periods of personal setback, when I needed to reassess my values and reground myself, helping me get back up again to face the challenges of the world head on and adapt to them.”
