Jesse Osborn, LCSW
It goes without saying: Life isn’t always easy. We encounter stress, loss, uncertainty, and painful experiences that may not register as “trauma” right away, but leave a mark. Over time, these experiences, unresolved, can shape how we see ourselves, relate to others, our attitudes and actions, our worthiness, and what we believe we deserve. For many, therapy may seem unfamiliar or uncomfortable-- self-care can feel like weakness. Often though, it's simply a choice to stop carrying everything alone and slow down, make sense of your experiences, and understand how your past may still be shaping your present.
