Do you regularly hear a voice that says “I’m not good enough”? Do you feel out of control and powerless against your emotions? Anxiety can be overwhelming. You have experienced it for a long time but dealing with it on your own has proven to be unsuccessful. You want to talk about it but others tend not to understand and their attempts to fix you can feel shaming. Perhaps you are experiencing struggles in your marriage or partnership. You have grown apart from your loved one and don’t know how to salvage things. There is one good thing about these realizations for you; now you know you need a real change. Fortunately, there is hope.
