You may have arrived here if:

• When you hear the phrase “use your coping skills,” you don’t know where to start or what to do.

• You’re tired of ruminating about the past or worrying about the future. You want your mind to be present in the here-and-now.

• No matter how much therapy you did or how many self-help books you’ve read, you just can’t manage distressing situations effectively.

• You get stuck in unhelpful thoughts and don’t know how to get unstuck.

• You don’t know how to calm down your nerves and deep breathing is not enough.

• You struggle with boundaries and effective communication in relationships.

• You want to navigate daily triggers in a way that makes you feel proud of yourself.

• You want to stay centered within yourself no matter what chaos in happening around you.

Skills coaching can help you:

• Learn psychological coping skills in a systematic, organized way.

• Engage with the skills in greater depth and learn to put theory to practice in your daily life.

• Figure out which skills to use for which situations and in what order as you prepare for anticipated triggers.

• Practice the skills during times of calm in order to train your brain to respond successfully during times of storm. It’s like training on the treadmill before running a marathon.

• Supplement therapy and accelerate the healing journey.
