Serein Counseling

There is something so soothing about that evening sun shower. The colors of the sky, the rain on the windows, and the clarity and calmness that follows. Serein Counseling was founded in 2017 by Micheline Maalouf who always reflected and got lost in the beautiful colors and feelings the "after rain" day held.

I know it's frustrating and at times it can be scary, especially if panic attacks are common for you. It's tough to remember what being calm and happy actually feels like because lately it has been a never ending roller-coaster of emotions that you just want to get rid of. Anxiety is extremely common and with therapy and determination, you can start to feel better and get back to your life.

You have lost motivation, you feel terrible about yourself and you have been isolating yourself more than usual. It's almost as if you are swimming just to keep your head above water but you don't feel you are moving. The worst part is that nobody seems to truly understand how bad you truly feel and you are tired of hearing how much better you will feel if you just get out and do something!

It's not your fault that someone hurt you and it's not your fault that something bad happened to you that has changed your life and the way you view the world. You may feel like you are alone, not sure who to talk to, and may even be doubting that you can feel better. You may feel as though you have lost everything, you feel empty, confused, scared and not sure how to even begin to process and heal.

I get it, life can be overwhelming and sometimes it's hard to find time for yourself. You may have felt like time is just passing you by and although you have tons of plans and goals it seems like there is never enough time to get it done.

Sometimes it feels like you are living to get things checked off the "to-do" list and you haven't had enough time to truly do the things you need to do to truly enjoy life and be present with yourself, your family, and loved ones.You may be feelings burned out, tired, emotional, reactive, and find yourself living in the future rather than enjoying and experiencing the present.
