Teens in Crisis
Adolescence is a time when teens stop talking to their parents as they begin to face adult issues in life. Teenagers are on an emotional roller coaster as they develop their first intimate relationships, establish their identities, and cope with peer and family pressures. When grave illness, divorce, death of a loved one, or other trauma enters the mix, the result can be emotionally overwhelming.
Chronic Illness
Whether you're suffering from cancer, diabetes, a heart condition, fibromyalgia, or chronic back pain, it's bound to have a negative impact on your mood and outlook on life. Your stress is bound to aggravate your medical condition. You resist telling all to your family. You don't want to burden them but you need a safe place to vent your anger, your fears, your frustration, your pain, and sometimes despair.
Caregiver Stress
Of course you love your ill family member but you're overwhelmed and exhausted and very much alone. Come to a safe place to unburden yourself, share your true feelings, and learn constructive ways of relieving stress and taking care of your own health.
Grief and Loss
There is no time limit on grief. We must allow ourselves to take the time we need and allow grief to run its natural course. Whether your relationship or marriage has ended or a loved one has died, it is helpful to share your grief, understand the stages, and learn healthful ways for the whole family to cope.
