Whilst we cannot stop what other people expect and think of us, nor can we prevent life from happening around us, we can look after our mental wellbeing.

Chronic, unresolved stress from the past impacts things like digestion, immune system, our behaviour and cognitive functioning and, importantly, how we feel. The degree to which we internalise stress in the present (in the form of worry) will depend on how we perceive a stressful situation. Both our past and our present ways of coping with stress are learned behaviours informed by core beliefs. Which means we can unlearn them. And adopt new ones.

By exploring how the past is informing the present. By clearing out the unwanted stories we created about ourselves that we believed to be true, we begin to notice how light and how positive we feel.

When you reclaim a joyful connection to yourself, you can embrace the strategies and techniques I will show you to manage the everyday and not-so-everyday stresses of life.

I have known Elissa for many years and started seeing her for support through a tough life event a few years ago. She is outstanding in her wisdom, knowledge and compassion as a health professional. Her ability to cut to the core of my problem was confronting and refreshing.Without Elissa, I would still be stuck in those old life patterns. So, thank you, Elissa!
