Welcome To Progressive Counseling & Hypnosis!


Remember, you have been criticizing yourself for years and it hasn’t worked. Try approving of yourself and see what happens.”

― LOUISE L. HAY, You Can Heal Your Life

   

Have you found yourself feeling...


Overwhelmed by anxiety, constantly questioning if you're doing enough?

Struggling with guilt or shame because you don’t feel as happy as you think you should? 

Feeling isolated or disconnected, even when surrounded by people? 

Resentful of how much your life has changed and the expectations placed on you? 

Carrying the weight of self-douband unrealistic expectations, fearing you’re not good enough? 

Mourning the loss of freedom, time, or even the person you used to be? 

Burnt out and exhausted, yet feeling pressured to appear “strong” and capable? 

Wondering if you’re truly cut out for this, whatever this may be?

Feeling jealous of others who seem to be handling it all so much better? 

Regret or second-guessing choices you’ve made, unsure of what comes next?


You are not alone.  Life can be beautiful, but it can also be hard—really hard. And you don’t have to navigate it alone.



Imagine knowing, deep in your heart, that:


You are normal—your struggles do not define you.

You are good enough, just as you are.

You have value and purpose beyond what you do for others.

You are needed—your presence matters.

You are lovable and worthy of care, including from yourself.

You are unique, interesting, and whole, even in your imperfections.

  

What would it be like to...


 Find Your Voice – Break free from the pressure to be “perfect” and discover what truly matters to you.
Build Confidence – Quiet the self-doubt and trust in your own ability to make decisions that feel right.
Cultivate Compassion – Release the harsh self-judgment and embrace all parts of yourself with love and acceptance.
Trust Your Intuition – Navigate the overwhelming sea of advice by reconnecting with your inner wisdom.
Create Your Unique Path – Whether in parenting, relationships, or personal growth, find an approach that aligns with your values, personality, and needs.    




You’ve Been Struggling Long Enough. It’s Time to Put Yourself First!
 

Set boundaries without guilt—because your well-being matters too.

Speak your truth—advocate for yourself with clarity and courage. 

Reconnect with your passions—rediscover joy, purpose, and you.


Enough waiting. Enough struggling in silence. 

You deserve support, healing, and a space where you come first.


I am here to help and support you on your journey!




"And into the ocean I go, to lose my mind and find my soul..."

Support for Caregivers: Prioritizing Your Mental Health


Caregivers often put others first, leaving little time for their own well-being. Whether you’re caring for an elderly parent, a child with special needs, or a loved one with a chronic illness, you may experience:


✔ Emotional exhaustion and burnout

✔ Struggles with setting boundaries and asking for help

✔ Anxiety, stress, and difficulty sleeping

At Progressive Counseling & Hypnosis, we provide a safe space for caregivers to express their emotions, manage stress, and learn practical coping strategies. You deserve support just as much as the people you care for.


Specialized Support for Women & Mothers

Women experience unique mental health challenges due to hormonal fluctuations, societal expectations, and the demands of balancing career, relationships, and caregiving. Anxiety and depression can be heightened by these pressures, making tailored support essential.


Additional Common issues we address include:


Relationship struggles & fear of being alone

✔ Pregnancy-related anxiety & postpartum challenges

✔ Burnout from caring for others

✔ Self-esteem, identity, and confidence concerns

✔ Setting boundaries & learning assertiveness

✔ Fear of judgment & seeking approval

✔ Navigating major life changes & transitions
