Now I hope all read this without judging me. This may be too deep for some. Hell its too deep for me. Maybe its all bull but maybe its not. All I know is I am a human being and Im suffering. I dont know why but I just want to vent and say what I really think anxiety is. I have many years experience fighting anxiety and panic. I am still fighting and still searching. Ive tried Panic Away and Linden Method and all these things that help somewhat but it is always still there. I believe a law is written in every human creature. I believe this is morality. Whether we believe in God or not we have to abide by some law. I believe every individual born on this earth has a law etched in their heart. I believe I have broken this law intentionally many times since my youth. I believe I created a conflict between myself and this law. The problem lies with my self centered belief that deep down inside I have yet to have forgiven myself for conflicting with this law. I know I have sinned and I also know I have repented and changed my life. I am no longer the immoral man I once was. But yet something still remains. These memories of my past or this well lubed machine of anxiety of these past conflicts. I have classically conditioned myself to respond with anxiety in any conflict now. It goes back to the law I was breaking. I believe that when I broke these laws of morality within myself I was allowing myself to become irrational and conditioned into the irrational. Even though I have changed my life the irrational memory of myself still remains in my mind and body. My soul (or who I am) now realizes who my enemy is. It is that voice that caused me to break the morality of the law inside me. This voice has established its roots and does not want to leave easily. This is my conflict. This is my war. This is my anxiety. Anxiety is a demon. I bind this demon to silence and inactivity in Jesus Christs name and cast him into the deep recesses of hell for all eternity. May God have mercy on my soul.

Seeking an alternative to traditional therapy?
That’s why I’m here. My tools range from innovative new mind-body modalities (e.g., Energy Psychology) to the most ancient spiritual/energetic modality (shamanic healing). These tools enable me to help clients address most of the problems that licensed mental health professionals do – plus some they can’t. And usually do it more efficiently.
This is the main reason I almost always have one or more licensed therapists as clients. See the testimonials on my website.

My sensitive and engaging, direct and practical, style is reported by my clients as one of their attractions to working with me. I work with Children, Adolescents and Adults, addressing ADHD, depression and anxiety, divorce, loss and medical trauma. . I would be honored with your trust in me.

My name is Lakeshia Perryman. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor, Registered Nurse, and the owner of Healing Hearts Therapy, PLLC. The goal of Healing Hearts is to assist you with reconnecting with yourself and becoming the best version of you. A client-centered approach is implemented to meet the individual needs of each client to help you heal from past hurts and current situations that feel controlling over your life.

Everyone struggles at some time or another. That's life. And when the struggle becomes unmanageable, that's where I come in. As a sensorimotor trained therapist I offer a calming, non-judgmental, and supportive environment to explore your struggles. Part of that exploration may involve how your past intrudes upon your present, and your future. We work together to make sense of what is troubling you so you can become empowered to make the changes that will benefit your life. Are you worth that exploration and making those changes? Absolutely! I look forward to connecting with you.

I appreciate that it can be challenging to find a therapist. I encourage you to shop around, read profiles, visit websites, and have initial sessions with a couple of providers to find someone who you can really talk to and be open with. We all have different styles and vibes and ways of talking and that's a good thing, hopefully we're all well trained as well but I encourage you to inquire if our training and credentials are confusing or not obvious.
In therapy I will be someone who challenges you. I might interrupt you at times if your thinking seems off. I will encourage you to feel and exercise and be honest with yourself and the people you love. Therapy will be challenging. Hopefully you will be thoughtful about the process and interested in making changes. I'm here to help you become the person who you want to be and love the person who you are.

I am a certified and ICF-credentialed coach, Kellogg Executive Scholar in leadership, scientist, and Chopra Center certified instructor in Primordial Sound Meditation. And, I don’t quite fit the mold.
I see invisible things. As an experimental materials scientist, I studied delicate nanometer structures using high-resolution electron beams. Often, that meant balancing power and sensitivity while patiently retaining focus for an extensive period to notice the subtle unfolding of something new - before it turned visible to anyone else.
As a coach, I bring the same optimism, joy, and discipline of discovery when we shine the light on invisible things that a client is looking to bring into focus in a coaching session. I enjoy witnessing my clients’ wonder and awe as they encounter new elements of self for the first time.
I listen to the sixth sense. I have cultivated systems thinking in my roles as an engineer and business leader, and I pay close attention to patterns, trends, and interdependencies. I found synchronicity and a sense of timing to hold the most significant power among all variables.
In coaching, we directly experience the significance and power of moments big and small as we expand our wisdom to include strategic intuition and a sense of timing. Not all moments may hold equal leverage, but each one is indispensable as they combine to form a unique symphony of our lives.
I trust the process and the resourcefulness of our creativity. Growing up in the former Yugoslavia during the civil war and disintegration of the country, I directly witnessed the complexity, strain, and tremendous resilience of the human spirit. Through those experiences, I gained a humbling appreciation for the regenerative powers of hope, curiosity, and love amid uncertainty and sustained collective trauma.
In my coaching sessions, I aspire to provide unconditional positive regard, radical acceptance, and full presence for my clients who navigate the deep and cloudy waters of personal transformation.

Life is too often a roller coaster ride. Relationships that often leave us feeling tired, frustrated, and confused. If that's where you find yourself - call me. We will work together and we will exhale together. You will regain your confidence and your joy.

When you experience trauma or stressful life situation, it is not uncommon for your life to feel out of control.

If you're looking for extra support and guidance to help you know yourself better or you're just ready to move in a new direction in your life, I look forward to working with you to achieve your goals.

Beautiful, especially the ending \”This voice has established its roots and does not want to leave easily. This is my conflict. This is my war. This is my anxiety. Anxiety is a demon. I bind this demon to silence and inactivity in Jesus Christs name and cast him into the deep recesses of hell for all eternity. May God have mercy on my soul.\”
Very wise and helpful, I believe this too.
veritas good words bro , i get it , i\'ll never give the fight up……………
For we know that the law is spiritual. But I am carnal, sold under sin. For that which I work, I understand not. For I do not that good which I will, but the evil which I hate, that I do. If then I do that which I will not, I consent to the law, that it is good. Now then it is no more I that do it, but sin that dwells in me. For I know that there dwells not in me, that is to say, in my flesh, that which is good. For to will is present with me, but to accomplish that which is good, I find not.For the good which I will, I do not,but the evil which I will not, that I do.
Forgive yourself man… God will have forgiven you already.. =)
This is deep, and I love it:)). It could well be a law we
all broke and somehow we are being condemned for it.
You gave us somthing to realy think about.
Maybe not condemned but allowed to suffer for our transformation into a new creature. We are given a gift of
anxiety to see ourselves for what we are. A creature made to the image and \”likeness\” of God. We are made in the image of God but not yet the \”likeness\”. This voice I speak of is the evil one who has control over all flesh. As we are born into the Spirit overcoming the flesh this evil one holds on and tries to make us condemn our Creator for our suffering. Tries in our case with \”Anxiety\” to give up hope. But we hold fast and carry our cross for the sake of our salvation. But not without reward. For this mortal shall put on immortality. O death where is thy victory, O death where is thy sting! This is my belief!
God has forgiven you, the minute you asked for forgiveness it was a done deal!! The Bible says that it is as if it never happened, satan is another matter. Ask God to cast him from you, when you have these thoughts demand that satan leave your mind. he has no dominion over a follower of Jesus Christ.
Remind yourself of your changed life, and realize that you are a new person, with no connection to your past sins. God loves you, and so do I.
