Depression

Joy in life has ceased to exist.

Other than going to work, you only leave the house to get some necessities. Even then, you try to take as many flex or remote days as possible to avoid the energy it takes to go to the office and see people. Each day, you must put on a face for them.

On your way to the store, you notice a young child having sheer joy on her face while playing with a balloon. “When was the last time I felt a fraction of her joy?” Experiencing reminders of your lack of joy is why it’s so hard to go out anymore.

Everywhere you look, there are reminders about how others seem to be able to find some contentment and happiness in life, and you can’t.

“Are the happy people lying to themselves?” Maybe this is the meaning of “ignorance is bliss.” Either way, they’re able to make it work. 

Loneliness makes everything more complicated.

Mastering the art of connection and meaning is hard as an adult. Life is often overwhelming with work and family responsibilities, resulting in disconnection.

There’s little to no time left for you, let alone trying to address the loneliness in the pit of your stomach.

Sometimes anxiety settles inwardly, saying that your best isn’t good enough or life isn’t going to get better but only increasingly more challenging. These thoughts and feelings take over – creating hopelessness and cynicism.

For whatever reason, life hasn’t given you plentiful relationships or resources like it has for others. Being left out is no fun.

You can live a meaningful life – no matter the circumstances.

That is a huge statement. And while it may come off presumptuous, we (Matt and Amanda) have seen it repeatedly.

The happiest people have no doubt experienced a lot of sadness, too. We can help you “master the art of watering your grass” by helping you view emotions differently, expand your capacity for all feelings, and allow yourself the good emotions.

We believe that cultivating the best life requires making room for all emotions, even loneliness, hopelessness, and sadness. Through working with us, you will discover your passions in life and the unique spark inside of you.

Together, we will help you take steps toward these passions as you start small to cultivate a life that is as unique as you. You deserve to have a meaningful and happy life! And we mean that – emphatically!
