Do You Feel...

If you recognize these symptoms in yourself or someone you know, reaching out to the experts at Foundations can be a convenient and effective way to start addressing these challenges. The team at Foundations is ready to guide you through your journey toward healing and personal growth. Taking that first step to seek help can lead to significant positive changes in your life.

Persistent Sadness or Depression

If you often feel down, hopeless, or melancholic, it could be a sign of depression. Counseling can help you identify the root of these feelings and provide strategies to manage them.

Anxiety & Stress Management

While anxiety is natural, excessive worry or fear can feel overwhelming. Individual counseling can teach you valuable coping skills to ease your mind.

Irritability or Uncontrollable Anger

If you frequently feel anger that is intense or hard to control, it can strain your personal and professional relationships. Counseling can offer ways to manage your anger and understand its sources.

Social Withdrawal

Avoiding friends, family, or activities you once loved? Counseling can help you uncover the reasons behind this behavior and reconnect with your passions.

Changes in Sleeping or Eating Patterns

Significant changes in sleep habits or eating patterns can be a sign of mental health concerns. Counselors help you explore these changes and suggest interventions if needed.

Feelings of Worthlessness or Guilt

Persistent thoughts of inadequacy or overwhelming guilt may point to underlying mental health issues. Therapy provides a path to healing.

Difficulty Concentrating

Struggling to focus on tasks at work or at home can be a symptom of various mental health issues. Counseling can help you identify the causes and provide strategies to improve concentration.

Substance Abuse

Using drugs or alcohol to cope with emotions or to feel normal can indicate deeper issues that might benefit from counseling.

Life & Career Changes

Facing significant transitions? Counseling offers the support you need to navigate uncertainty and embrace new opportunities.

Relationship Challenges

Conflict, communication breakdowns, or emotional distance can put a strain on the strongest relationships. Individual counseling helps you navigate challenges in your relationship dynamics.

Trauma & PTSD

Experiencing or re-experiencing traumatic events through flashbacks or nightmares can lead to post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Counseling is crucial for trauma recovery.

Grief & Loss

The loss of a loved one can leave you feeling overwhelmed and adrift. Counseling provides a compassionate space to process your grief, honor your emotions, and begin to find healing and meaning after loss.
