Compassionate therapy to heal your soul.
Anxiety | Trauma + PTSD | Relationships
I want to help you thrive.
You would like to live your life with confidence and clarity, with a sense of being all right in the world. But instead you feel anxious and frustrated. Hounded by an inner critic that can be relentless, you feel unworthy of love: “Never good enough!”. This painful inner dialog often leaves us feeling isolated and alone.
We may come to believe these stories about ourselves. But they’re not true, they never have been. I can help you recover your true nature. To discover what it is you really want and who you really are in your innermost soul life.
I’M Holly nielsen, licensed marriage and family therapist and professional clinical counselor.
You are not alone.
I understand what you’re struggling with. I know how the mind can be a dangerous place to be stuck in. In my work, I help people find their way through this labyrinth.
Anxiety
Move past paralyzing fear and doubt. Learn the tools you need to manage anxiety and begin to live the life you want. Learn to stop the downward spiral of catastrophic thinking. When we are able to do this we find that even the most difficult and unwanted experiences in life feel manageable again.
Trauma+PTSD
Reconnect with life as you heal past trauma. Childhood abuse and neglect, narcissistic abuse, spiritual abuse, unresolved grief and loss: There are many things that happen to us that leave deep scars. And so often, this nightmare seems to repeat itself. Learn how to break free from trauma repetition and dissociation. Learn how to respond with clarity and presence instead of reacting in frustration and anger or fear. Recover the vitality and energy to do the things you enjoy again.
Relationships
Learn to communicate with confidence and compassion as you heal in relationship, together. Find fulfillment and enjoyment with your loved ones as you acquire knowledge of your own needs and boundaries and learn about theirs. Find compassion as you begin to feel “seen” and “heard”. Discover the common ground and the “we” space to build the partnership, marriage, or family you want. Best practice is to address unhealthy patterns in relationships sooner rather than later.
