“I Just Felt Stuck” – The Beginning of One Client’s Story

When “Alyssa” (name changed) first reached out to us, she described feeling completely overwhelmed. After a difficult breakup and work-related stress, she often felt anxious, emotionally drained, and unsure of how to move forward. Everyday tasks felt like climbing a mountain, and her confidence had hit an all-time low.

She knew something needed to change but wasn’t sure where to start. That first phone call to PsycHealth Services took courage—and it was the first step toward something new.

A Safe Space for Healing

Alyssa began trauma-informed individual counseling, focusing on building emotional safety and self-awareness. Our clinicians used evidence-based approaches including:

• Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to identify and reframe self-defeating thought patterns.
• Mindfulness-based techniques to manage stress and anxiety in the moment.
• Strength-based counseling to uncover personal resilience she didn’t realize she had.

Sessions provided not only a safe space to process her feelings but also tools she could take into her daily life.
