Holistic and Somatic Therapy

 


Do you ever get that sinking feeling right after making a simple choice, instantly wondering if you’ve completely messed it up?

Your mind spins in circles, analyzing every alternative, while a tight knot forms in your stomach, telling you your first instinct couldn't possibly be right.

Second-guessing yourself is exhausting.

It keeps your system wound tight, treating every small choice like a massive crisis.

This is a deeply ingrained habit your nervous system adopted to keep you safe.

When you’ve spent years navigating spaces where it felt risky to make a mistake, your internal wiring has learned that overthinking was the only way to protect yourself.

At Life By Design Therapy™, we help you uncover the root of that internal friction. Here are 6 hidden reasons you second-guess yourself:

  • You learned to read others before reading yourself

  • Your nervous system is trying to avoid emotional discomfort

  • You’ve become disconnected from your internal cues

  • You don't fully trust yourself to handle hard feelings

  • Overthinking became associated with safety or success

  • Your body has learned to stay in a state of activation

Reclaiming self-trust isn’t about trying harder to find the "perfect" answer.

It’s about giving your nervous system permission to drop the bracing and realize you are allowed to exist without constant evaluation.

Is your internal voice having a hard time trusting your reality lately? 🌿

If you’re in California and you’re ready to help your system find its way back to a place of inner clarity and peace, we’re here to support you.

Therapy for Couples Looking to Reconnect

Helen Keller once said that “the best and most beautiful things in this world cannot be seen or even heard, but must be felt with the heart.” Everyone wants to be loved, and many spend their entire lives pursuing it. Yet moments of joy and fulfillment that love is designed to provide as comfort are bits and pieces, sprinkled in with a fair amount of disappointment, resentment, and heartbreak. Relationships are so fundamental to a healthy life that we go to great lengths to make them work. You may compromise too much, or too little. You may have certain beliefs or habits that are so difficult to break free from and restrict you from having a strong bond with your partner. You may carry old wounds into a new relationship, and have trouble forgiving or loving yourself making it almost impossible to truly love another. You may have struggled to understand your needs and wants, and that indecision is leading to mixed signals for a lover that needs clarity and heal...

Teenagers face real concerns, between 13 and 19 years of age, on a daily basis as this is the most awkward growth stage of their lives. During this time, teens are exposed to some overwhelming external and internal struggles. They go through, and are expected to cope with hormonal changes, puberty, social and parental forces, work and school pressures, and so on. Many teens feel misunderstood. It is vital that their feelings and thoughts are validated and that the validation comes from their parents.

Holistic Therapy

Become the Individual that You Were Meant to Be You Deserve to Feel Safe. Empowered. Connected to Those Around You. You Deserve to Grow, and You Deserve to Thrive! Research has shown that people who are accepted, loved and valued for who they are go on to live more fulfilling lives, and in doing so, better impact the lives of those around them. But too often, many therapies approach the issue of those who feel detached, distant, unloved or ashamed as if you are broken and need to be fixed. You are not broken. What’s broken is society’s approach to trying to segment everyone into nice, neat, predefined boxes, with labels that try to make a statement about you without giving you the chance to be heard. The truth is, there has never been anyone in history who is exactly like you — who has your unique skills, your talents, your style, your beliefs and your ambitions. Nor will there ever be another you. In the billions and billions of people in this world, you...
