About

Welcome to The Joyful Mind

Even if things look awesome on the outside, it doesn’t mean it represents what we are feeling on the inside. When you struggle with anxiety, you wear a mask on a daily basis to show the world you are a strong person. You help people when you can, you take on new roles, and you keep a smile on your face. All of this hides your fears of failure and rejection, self-doubt, and anxiety for the future. That feeling on the inside can lead us to behaviors like avoidance, overworking, as well as conflict in relationships (and the relationships you have with your animals). It can even show up in how we sleep, how we eat, and in chronic pain. My name is Carissa Weber. I am an outdoor enthusiast dedicated to helping people return to enjoying their own lives. How would it feel to finally break free from the “stuckness” in your life? You may re-discover the passion you have for your work or feel more capable of handling the changes and curveballs that come your way. You could feel more confident in yourself and more connected to life. Sounds pretty good, right? My only question to you is this: Why wait? Together, we’ll find new, healthier ways of helping with strong emotions, the doubts, and the fears that come along with overcoming anxiety. Working together, you’ll feel more empowered to manage the symptoms of anxiety and depression, and to create a well-defined sense of your capacity to give—which includes finding ways to give back to yourself. As a therapist, I use a blend of treatment modalities, neuroscience, and sarcasm to help clients build on their strengths to rediscover who they are. When we work together, you will have a safe place to share your experience in a judgment-free zone. Rather than "jump to conclusions'' and make uncomfortable treatment recommendations to you after the first session, I will take time to get to know who you are, understand what you are facing, and help you explore ways to relieve your anxiety, depression, and self-doubt. I’ve worked to create the kind of non-judgmental therapy space where I’d want to find myself as a client—where one can ugly cry & make dark-humored jokes within the same session.
