Online Therapy in CA
Online counseling for professionals who feel anxious or depressed.
You’re dedicated to your work but at the same time it stresses you out and you want things to slow down.
You find yourself rushing from place to place, unable to catch your breath but are not sure how to make your life more manageable. Yet every time you slow down, your mind spins out of control. You think about things in the past that happened or made you sad. These thoughts go on a loop and the pain gets bigger when you aren’t busy. You keep hoping that the more you do (at work, at the gym, with friends) the less you will have to feel the pain or shame from your past.
Yet you know you are not living the life you want to.
You can’t turn off your brain and you want to stop overthinking every little thing you do. You feel afraid of making a mistake and can’t relax a lot of the time and it is impacting your work and relationships. You realize that you need a change but you aren’t sure where to start. All you know that is you are tired of avoiding all of your feelings and thoughts and want to feel at home in your own body.
My name is Lisa Manca. I am a licensed professional clinical counselor and dance/ movement therapist located in San Francisco, CA.
I help anxious, supersmart professionals who feel numb after pain and tragedy reconnect to their bodies so that they can release their pain and feel good again. Together we explore how to feel emotions without wanting to run away or find distractions and by using movement we can access thoughts and feelings that otherwise might stay hidden. By connecting to our bodies, we can truly feel our emotions and let them go (along with all the tension, pain, and stress that we carry).
Currently my practice is online and my clients find that they are more comfortable moving and doing counseling in their homes. In a familiar space they can explore their feelings in their bodies and learn to let go of pain. If you are ready to feel calm and safe in your body and want to explore your emotions rather than hide them under productivity, please contact me.
