i am so tired of everything being my fault. and me messing everything up. its like nobody aprriciates everything i do for them, and i mean i do everything for them, “plug in my phone.” “get me a drink” “make my dinner.” “bring me food.” nobody is capible of doing anything besides me but even then what i do is never good enough. everyone gets so upset when i mess up or i forget to do something or i get upset because im the only one doing it and they dont care. they dont care about me, sometimes it just feels like all i am to them is someone to clean and cook for them.my parents say they love me you know, but if they did dont you think theyd notice everything thats going on with me? they never noticed when i was anorexic, never notice when i became a vegitarian. of corse not im the one who makes all the food. they never notice when im depressed or that i cut or i cry myself to sleep. lately its like im crying everyday now.i dont know how to stop it. it just pours out of me and i lose control. but then i get called to do something else for them and i come out after crying and they dont notice? the tears in my eyes or my puffy red face or my trembling voice? how do they not notice? or do they not care? either way i cant keep living like this. its unhealthy. but i dont know what to do anymore. i have no one i can really talk to and if i tell someone they will get dissappointed. i dont know why i care if i let them down but i do. i feel like i do already, probably because they have unreasonably high stards of me and expect me to be perfect. but im not. im far from perfect.i feel like im a dissapointment to everyone. inculding myself. i just dont know what to do anymore.somethings gotta change but i dont know how. what can i do to fix whats been broken for so long?

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.

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.

Struggling with how much your world has changed in such a short time? Feeling anxious, on edge, and uncertain? If your anxiety has been triggered by current events, you are certainly not alone. But in some ways, that makes it harder. Everyone is worried and hurting, including you. You can also feel it tapping into some old stuff, magnifying how lousy you feel. You have worked so hard in your life to feel in charge and on top of things but now feel out of control and helpless. It's not a good feeling. Even worse, your usual coping mechanisms -- going to yoga class, getting coffee with a co-worker, or throwing yourself into work -- have been taken away for now. There's no real end in sight and you're not sure what to do.
We understand how awful that feels and want to help. The therapists at Nova Terra Therapy work both online and in-person to help clients like you to identify and deal with both old and new anxiety triggers. We use a variety of approaches but are particular fans of blending cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and EMDR. Using this combination, we help you to get at what's happening in both your mind and your body when it comes to anxiety-provoking or traumatic events. We've found that these two heavily-researched evidence-based treatments are particularly effective at giving our clients efficient, long-standing relief.

I have been in the mental health field for 32 years, providing out-patient services to couples, families and individual over 16 years. I opened Schiller Counseling Services to help people live their best life. I am an upbeat, active therapist who emphasizes a strength based perspective. My education, continued efforts to receive the most up to date training, and life experience results in my ability to connect and support my patients. I offer a welcoming environment allowing my patients to relax and share their thoughts and feelings.

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.

I have been in private practice seeing adults and couples since 2004. I love my job and feel so fortunate to be able to work with people on living their best lives. I tailor sessions to the needs of the client- whether setting measurable goals, processing emotions in a safe space, changing habits or increasing self awareness.

You are getting things done! You go to work, knock down those goals- your super successful, and yet, things just aren't working. You're not happy, maybe you can't relax. On a normal week-anxiety keeps you up at night. And, with these last few months, you are even more on edge. Maybe it's time you talked to someone who understands the pressures of working and living in the DC area and how to protect your mental wellness.

It's completely understandable to have feelings of anxiety, overwhelm, stress and depression--especially now. Being a human is tough stuff! I want to be your go-to companion as we figure out a way to make these feelings a little easier for you to deal with on a daily basis. I'd love to talk for an initial consultation (totally free!) to see if you think we'd work well together!
