it. If you feel that your anger is out of control, if it
is having an impact on your relationships and on important
parts of your life, you might consider counseling to learn
how to handle it better.
Anxiety
We all experience anxiety or worry at times. When anxiety
becomes overwhelming, it can be hard to function at all.
With proper support, many people learn to dramatically reduce
the intensity of anxiety to a more comfortable level.
Assertiveness Training
Are you passive in various aspects of your life? Does it
seem like people just don’t listen to you? Or, are
you aggressive and take charge no matter whom or what is
in your way? Possibly, even both? Our Coach can teach you
how to assert yourself in a way that gets your needs met
and encourages people to respect you.
Communication Skills
Effective communication is one of the most powerful tools
a person can posses. Without this skill, it is difficult

Depression
We all experience sadness. But there are times when we experience
sadness or hopelessness for more than a couple of weeks.
Depression is highly treatable, and many people learn to
cope with depression and again live meaningful lives.
Life Transitions
Life transitions such as divorce, termination of a relationship,
relocation, losing or changing employment, a change in our
health status, or even loss and death of someone we love
all have significant emotional impacts. Managing life-altering
transitions is possible, and it is something we can do well
with guidance and support.

boundaries to guide us. Respect would be rare and rules
would be abandoned.
