Introduction

Choose yourself today! It’s just a lot sometimes. Need a minute to think and focus on your needs for a change? Be ready for an interactive therapist who challenges your thinking. It’s different than talking to your friends or family. I’m a neutral, educated, confidential, safe place to sort through it all without any backlash. Depressed people tend to focus a lot on the past, whereas anxious people tend to spend too much time worrying about the future. Let’s increase focus on the present and seek balance. Sometimes we don’t see the forest through the trees. Denying or restricting our emotions adds up. Here, you’ll get better at accepting your emotions and taking ownership of your reactions. Let’s take a closer look at what’s causing your distress. Whether you just want to let it out, get some validation, better process it, or brainstorm solutions, let’s focus on YOU today. My name is Lisa Rusca and I welcome you to Rusca Therapy, where your thoughts always matter. CALL (559) 777-SELF to schedule your appointment today or EMAIL: lisa@ruscatherapy.com
