Do you feel like you’re not living your best life? Or that this isn’t the way life is supposed to feel?

You’re successful, accomplished, and maybe even an overachiever, yet you’re constantly in your head all the time, overthinking almost everything, second-guessing decisions, obsessing about small details, and possibly even “people-pleasing”.

You might be living with a general, constant sense of unease or stress (“but what am I stressing about?”).  You might even feel frequently overwhelmed, and the little things just add up emotionally.  Even though you’re performing at work and/or school, these feelings are likely still getting in the way of you living your best life.

A lot of the time, elements from our past show up in our present and future.  These could be anything from childhood relationships, major life events, significant memories, or anything else that may be lurking in the background.  Dr. Azzam will work with you on getting a better understanding on how all of these things tie together, and together you’ll identify specific solutions to help you live your best life.

It is especially true for couples as well that each of you is bringing into your mutual relationship your own past and “pre-programmed” ways of thinking, your feelings, and ways of behaving.  Dr. Azzam will work with you both to help unpack these, understand them, and adjust things as necessary.
