To others around you, you seem to have your sh*t together. What others don't see is that you're extremely hard on yourself and full of anxiety. Scared to death of making mistakes has made you doubt if you will ever quiet your inner critic and believe that you are good enough. In the past you learned that if you messed up you could stuff if down as far as it would go.and it worked for a while.
But, it's not working any more, and you feel like the anxiety that's been hiding underneath is about to explode. As a result, you've become the over thinker, replaying failed scenarios, full of self-doubt woman that you never thought you'd become. Therapy can help you to silence the inner critic that screams when you mess up, to find fulfillment in life again, heal from past wounds, and to leave the self doubt and perfectionism behind once and for all.
If you're ready to do the hard work that it takes in therapy and to face the uncomfortable feelings head on. I'm Jessica Armitage, a Licensed Professional Counselor in Ooltewah, Tennesee.

You've come to the realization that maybe you really haven't "dealt" with the past.
It can be difficult to think of one specific "event" but you know the past hasn't really been resolved.
You've been to therapy before and have found some relief but felt like it never got to the "ROOT"of the problem.
You are ready to dig deeper and leave the past in the past and your body has the ability to heal itself and that's where EMDR comes in.
EMDR is an acronym for Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing.
