When Your Mind Won’t Turn Off
Do you ever feel trapped inside your own head — overanalyzing every detail, questioning every decision, or worrying endlessly about what might happen next? Maybe your thoughts move so fast you can’t rest, or so repetitively that you feel stuck in mental quicksand. When your mind is constantly racing or looping, it’s not a sign of weakness — it’s your brain’s way of trying (and failing) to solve a problem it can’t control. Over time, that mental overload can create anxiety, irritability, insomnia, and exhaustion.
In therapy, we’ll use a structured, evidence-based approach called TEAM-CBT to help you slow down, organize, and retrain your thinking patterns. Together, we’ll:
Learn to recognize the difference between helpful problem-solving and mental spinning
Use tools to calm racing thoughts and reduce rumination
Build cognitive flexibility so your brain can shift gears more easily
Strengthen your ability to focus, rest, and stay present
Use neuroscience-based techniques to reset overactive “threat” and “worry” circuits
You’ll leave sessions with practical tools you can use daily to quiet your mind, sleep more deeply, and think more clearly. Relief doesn’t come from forcing your thoughts to stop — it comes from changing how you relate to them.
I BELIEVE:
You are not your thoughts — and your thoughts are not always the truth.
A racing mind is a sign of an overprotective brain, not a broken one.
Calm isn’t something you “find”; it’s something you train your brain to return to.
You can learn to live with your mind, not against it.
Clarity, rest, and focus are skills — and they can be learned.

KIM RICHARDSON LINDLEY
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT, LPCC, I CADC II
In the therapeutic setting, the capacity to differentiate from the mind's ability to think complex truths, and some less than helpful untruths or cognitive distortions is illuminating and healing.
