When your inner light is flickering…

There are days you feel “fine,” but other days you feel nothing at all.

Exhausted and lost, you crave more balance in your life.

Trying to get it all done so that you can finally feel good enough just isn’t working. You want to do better and contribute to your life, but you are unsure how.

Teen Trials

Sarah’s list of shoulds was never-ending.

Exhausted and lost, she craved more balance in her life.

She stressed about the number of AP classes she should be taking, the tests she should be studying for, the A’s she should be getting, and the resume-building summer job she should be finding.

She had to be good enough now to ensure that she could build the life she wanted later.

There was so much pressure.

Sarah felt the pressure from all angles: her friends, her parents, her deadlines and especially herself.

Everyone wanted something from her now. Everyone hoped for big things from her later.

She walked through her day wondering if she would ever be good enough… until it all became too much.

Sarah cracked and cried.

Her parents were brokenhearted to see her in pain, but they weren’t sure how to help.

So they called Inner Light Therapy.

Mom Burdens

Jennifer was living her own version of the movie, Groundhog Day.

Her days ran together. The passing weeks became years.

The kids got taller, gave up crying in their cribs for whining about homework, and developed their own inner lives.

But her life felt like one long pause button.

What did she have to show for the passing of time?

Feeling disconnected, Jennifer walked around just checking the boxes: getting dinner on the table and making sure the kids were where they needed to be.

She yearned to feel better, be better connected with her husband and kids, and have a balanced life where she engaged in the things that she loved AND in the lives of those she loved.

Jennifer needed to do something for herself…

But she didn’t know how. She was too busy fulfilling everyone else’s needs and feeling lost.

So she called Inner Light Therapy.

Midlife Slumps

Beth wore all the different hats,…

… daughter, spouse, mother, woman.

For years, she moved mountains to keep things running for her family, her community, and herself.

She loved the energy, the drive, the hope. Right up to the point where…

Everything was changing in Beth’s world.

Her body, her marriage, her kids, and her aging parents.

Time was a thief, and she couldn’t keep it all together anymore.

What used to make Beth feel better stopped working. Her frustrations grew.

Beth asked herself…

Is this what life is supposed to be like? Is this where I am supposed to be?

She didn’t have the answer.

So she called Inner Light Therapy.

Welcome to Inner Light Therapy

Melissa Frye, MA, LPCC

Hi, I’m Melissa. I opened Inner Light Therapy to offer a space for women and girls to find clarity and support.

At Inner Light, we want to get to know people and their stories.

As a mom, spouse, daughter, and woman, I have many stories, and I understand how many complicated challenges life can throw at you.

With so many things vying for our attention and demanding that we make decisions, life’s complications overwhelm most of us at some point. Our inner light gets overshadowed, and it becomes hard to keep moving forward.

In those times, we help people remember who they are and figure out what they need. From that clarity, we help our clients redefine the life they want and then take action to get there.

If you are ready to make yourself a priority, we are here to help.

We’ll meet you where you are and support and guide you to being the best version of yourself.

And if you have any doubts, hear us say that it is okay to work toward getting what you want. In fact,  believe me, it’s more than okay. It’s worth it. You’re worth it.

Call us now for your free 15-minute phone consultation.

Sarah – Teen Triumphs

While working together, Sarah and I quieted the outside noise and discovered what really mattered to her. We worked through her perfectionism and calmed her anxious thoughts.

Sarah has been able to follow a time management plan that we created in therapy and has been fully experiencing and enjoying high school, feeling prepared to address stress whenever it comes her way.

Jennifer – Mom Balance

Jennifer was able to explore her core beliefs and what “she thought” a mom and wife were supposed to be like. Looking back, Jennifer realized her mom left more of an impact on her than she ever realized.

Jennifer began to listen to what she needed and vocalized her needs. Jennifer figured out how to be the mom and wife she dreamed of being AND find balance in her life.

Beth – Midlife Success

Beth was able to find validation and emotional support through therapy and realized that the fear of failing was holding her back from connecting with life.

Beth embraces change now and uncovered that she misses painting, a hobby of hers that she wanted to return to. Beth also learned to look at life as progress, not perfection.
