I am glad you found me and I want to tell you a little bit about myself, and why I became a counselor.
I will never forget the day I sat across the kitchen table from my neighbor, Edie, who had recently lost her husband of fifty years.
Edie was understandably heartbroken and needed to talk.
We sat together for what seemed like hours as Edie reminisced about her husband and their life together.
She talked, I listened, we wept.
For me it was a privilege to sit with Edie as she shared the most cherished memories of her life with me.

Living with anxiety can be painful and even paralyzing.
Worries, problems and fears storm your mind, hijack your thoughts, and try to take them captive.
You feel so afraid, preoccupied, and obsessed, but no matter what you do you are unable to rid yourself of these intruders.
You might find yourself engaging in rituals to fend off the intrusive thoughts.
You may feel imprisoned in an ever-shrinking world as you isolate yourself from others.
Perhaps you chastise yourself because you know your thoughts of fear, dread, or danger are irrational, but you feel powerless to change them.

Depression can make you feel as if you are walking through the valley of the shadow of death.
You feel tormented, despondent, and numb inside.
You are no longer living, just surviving.
Life seems bleak, flat, and dark.
It is as if everyone else is seeing life in Technicolor, while you only see gradations of black and white.
You feel despair, and you are convinced that things are never going to get better.
If you were to ask people with depression to describe what it is like, you would wonder whether they were all talking about the same condition.

Do you have lots of unproductive, hurtful arguments with your spouse that never get resolved?
Perhaps the busyness of life has prevented you from having the deep connection you once had?
You feel like strangers passing each other in the hall and your communication has been reduced to, "Have you placed the DoorDash order?" and "Can you pick up the kids?"
You may not even be able to remember the last time you were intimate.
You may still love your spouse, but you are lonely.
Perhaps there has been a betrayal involving infidelity, pornography, abuse, abdication of responsibility, or mishandling of money, and lies have only compounded this betrayal?
