You can take back control.
Therapy for change in San Diego and all over Califoria
Helping motivated individuals align their actions with their values and create intentional habits, without falling back into procrastination, even if fear and self-doubt have left them stuck in a cycle of inaction.
Do you ever feel like you know exactly what you want in life, but no matter how clear your goals are, you can’t seem to take the next step?
Whether it’s building a healthy marriage, getting in shape, or pursuing a meaningful career, you feel stuck, unsure why you can’t turn your intentions into action. You’ve set goals for yourself—some big, some small—but find yourself avoiding them, spending more time scrolling social media and YouTube than doing the things you truly want for yourself.
You might be asking:
“Why can’t I make progress on the things I know are important to me?”
“What’s stopping me from following through on my plans, even when they’re realistic?”
“Why do I keep avoiding the steps that will help me live the life I really want?”
If this sounds familiar, you aren’t alone.
You’re ready to turn your intentions into action and reconnect with your sense of self.
It’s frustrating to have clear goals—goals that are perfectly achievable—yet still feel paralyzed when it comes to taking action. You know what you want—a stronger marriage, a healthier body, or the career you’ve been dreaming about. You can picture it so clearly, almost like it’s within reach. But when it’s time to take the next step, it’s like hitting a wall. Instead of diving in, you find yourself scrolling through social media and YouTube, cleaning the kitchen again, or telling yourself, “Tomorrow. I’ll start tomorrow.”
Maybe you’ve stared at your running shoes, convincing yourself you’re too tired to work out, even though you know it’s what you need. Or maybe you’ve rehearsed a tough conversation in your head a dozen times, only to stay silent when the moment comes, afraid of what might go wrong. Each time you avoid taking action, the frustration grows. “Why can’t I just do it?” you wonder.
But then the fear creeps in—the fear of failure, the fear of what success might demand of you, or just the overwhelming size of the gap between where you are and where you want to be. You feel stuck, circling the same thoughts, replaying the same doubts. And the longer it goes on, the harder it becomes to connect with the purpose that once inspired you.
These moments of avoidance, doubt, and second-guessing don’t just frustrate you—they leave you feeling lost in a cycle of procrastination, self-doubt, and disconnection.
How therapy works
You can stick to the goals you want to achieve.
At Rooted in Renewal Therapy, I help individuals like you move from inaction to intentional progress—whether your goals are large and ambitious or simple and achievable. You might have dreams that feel out of reach, or you might be working toward something as fundamental as building a healthier relationship or making small changes in your routine. Either way, together we can create a clear path forward.
In our sessions, we’ll work to:
Reconnect you with your purpose so that your goals—big or small—feel meaningful and aligned with your values.
Break things down into bite-sized steps so even the most overwhelming goals feel manageable (and dare I say, achievable!)
Challenge those nagging fears and doubts—whether it’s fear of failure, success, or change—so you can take action with confidence.
Build intentional habits that keep you motivated, whether it’s creating a healthier routine, showing up in your relationships, or making strides in your career.
