Therapy Options in Berkeley

 






If you don’t gently close your workday, it keeps following you into your nights and your body.

You leave work, but your nervous system stays braced and alert.

Whether you are a student, a parent, or a high achiever, that internal "on" switch can feel impossible to flip.

That’s why rest feels so hard.

Your body never fully rests when it’s still waiting for the next task.

But rest is something you practice.

It’s not for "someday" or just for vacation.
It’s a skill for every single evening.

Your body learns safety through repetition.

At Life By Design Therapy™, our therapists support you in finding your way back to a state of softening.

We often see how small, intentional shifts can retrain a nervous system that has forgotten how to be still.

Try these four gentle ways to unwind tonight:

  • Choose a daily stop-time.

  • Change clothes right away.

  • Take 10 slow breaths.

  • No screens in the last 30 minutes.

Your body can begin to soften.

Remember: How you end your day teaches your body how to live.

Following these will keep you out of the common pitfalls that are typically experienced along the way. HAVE GOALS IN MIND To know you are healed, you have to know your definition of healed. This answer can be different for every person. To some people, this may be no longer being affected by relationship trauma.

Society is escalating at an insane, never before seen pace. We naturally feel like we need to be on the move, and constantly in action. But is that really the natural way of doing things?

You are hesitant to burden the people around you, so instead you suffer in silence. Life by Design Therapy  supports this understanding through  holistic  and  somatic psychotherapy .
