Other people tell a different story about you...

They say you’re strong.
Ambitious.
The one who goes after what you want. From the outside, it all looks…solid.

But that’s not your reality.

You feel like you have to be good all the time.

Perfectionism is a beast.
It lives rent free in your head.

You worry about everything. So you plan for everything; worst case scenarios and all.

Because if something goes wrong then you’ve failed.

And if you fail everyone will see it. They’ll realize you’re not who you say you are. That you’ve been faking it this whole time.

So you people please.
You keep the peace and you make sure no one ever has a reason to question you.

The problem is you have to keep performing.

And it’s exhausting because even when you try to rest, your mind doesn’t stop.
You feel off, but you’ve learned how to function like this.

But now it’s not working anymore.

You feel anxious.
Sometimes low.
Sometimes just…done.

Life doesn’t feel free.
It doesn’t feel fun.

And if you’re honest with yourself, you can’t remember the last time you made yourself a priority.

That led you to me.

Here at Creative Narrative Counseling & Coaching, LLC, I help people in South Carolina who feel anxious, overwhelmed, mentally exhausted, and stuck in overthinking slow things down and feel like themselves again.

You don’t have to wait until things get worse to speak with someone.
