Anxiety
Therapy

Anxiety Therapy
One of the most distressing emotions one can feel is that of anxiety. And yet anxiety is the body’s normal response to stress and it gives us what our bodies need in order to respond to the true threats and dangers of life—a rush of chemicals that allows us to act (fight), retreat (flight), or become utterly still and wait (freeze). But this very necessary coping mechanism becomes our enemy when [...]

Therapy for
Depression

Depression Therapy
In non-clinical terms, depression can be described as a “loss of” state. Loss of joy. Loss of motivation. Loss of appetite. Loss of hope. Clinically speaking, depression is a serious mental illness that causes long periods of sadness. People who suffer depression often have an overwhelming feeling of hopelessness and are [...]

Premarital
Counseling

Premarital Counseling

Coping with
Grief

Grief Management
The journey of grief does not happen in one’s head—as some mere intellectual problem to solve. The journey of grief happens in the body. Have you ever felt a hollow slug-in-the-gut sensation of loss? A sudden wash of heat through the limbs as tragedy unfolds? Or a vague, dull, lethargy—head to toe—as a long grief seems to never diminish? Grief is the body’s normal reaction to loss. At some point, we all experience [...]

Life Dissatisfaction

And sometimes life blindsides us with the very change we thought we expected when we thought we knew what to expect! We all experiences stress and uncertainty in the midst of change, but sometimes a person [...]

Midlife
Transition

“Midlife
Eric Erickson tells us that a normal part of development in adulthood during the midlife years is to ask the question: Can I make my life count? We typically ask this question in regard to our work, children, parents, friends, and God. It is here that we enter the midlife transition—and it is a profound transition as we [...]
