Your responses will either cause you to be “bitter” or “better”. I want to help you to understand the thoughts and feelings that influence your actions and behaviors, and to help you gain clarity and insight...
Being a human can be hard. We are given tools early in life to navigate this world and sometimes we get it right and other times we struggle for one reason or another. Sometimes milestones and life transitions bring up things you didn't think were issues or remind you of things you may have avoided over the years. We do our best to recover from anxiety, depression, trauma and other stressors on our own but sometimes we need outside support that goes beyond what friends, family and loved ones can...
