Self-injury is often a way of coping with overwhelming emotions. These resources offer compassionate information on recognizing warning signs and finding healthier ways to process pain and distress.
Book a SessionThe goal of counseling for self-injury isn’t to tell you to just stop. It's to help you find new and healthier ways to cope with the emotional pain you're feeling inside. Think of it as a guide to help you build a new toolkit. We work together to help you understand the "why" behind your behavior, so you can stop living in a cycle of pain and start living a life that is full and rewarding. You can learn to be in control of your emotions rather than having them control you.
The urge to self-injure can feel like an overwhelming wave. The key is to find a way to ride that wave without being swept away by it. We can help you learn to identify your triggers and build a personalized set of healthy coping skills for the moments when the urge arises, such as grounding techniques, reaching out to a support person, or moving your body. You can find a way to get through this, and we're here to help you get there. If you're in crisis, please call or text 988 for immediate support.

We will be there for you every step of the way.
