Identity and Purpose

How to redefine my identity and find a renewed sense of purpose?

Many a times, life passes us by, assigning us specific roles as the family hero, the caretaker, and the shock absorber. Implicitly or otherwise, people around us expect us to fulfill specific roles of caring for others, maintaining harmony, and other gender-specific tasks often assigned to women. However, in my lived experience and extensive therapy experience with women clients, I have come to discover that women often want more than socially assigned roles and tasks for them. We often want to see ourselves as a professionals, community leaders, and as change agents.

 

Redefining your identity, irrespective of what this phrase means to you, often comes with significant emotional labor, psychological stress, and resistance from people around us. At Soulfulness, I can help find authentic ways to discover who and what you wish to be as discover your evolving, and powerful inner self!!

Mental health counseling can also help us reconnect with our authentic, self, and discover what our purpose is. If you have been sitting with questions such as

  • How do I make my time in this world meaningful?
  • How do I make sense of my existence?
  • What is my purpose?
  • Is there any meaning to my suffering?
  • Who am I becoming, and how can I support that version of me?

then mental health counseling at Soulfulness Counseling can help you slow down, reconnect with yourself, and identify coping strategies that helps you live an authentic and purposeful life.
