Are you feeling overwhelmed, anxious or stressed with the news and the impact this is having on our community? Perhaps you're a parent that needs ideas on how to distract your kids. Perhaps you're a couple or a family needing an outlet to help cope due to poor communication skills. Maybe you are a individual feeling sadness or depression. Do you need to pray or need spiritual guidance? With many working from home and our changing world; we want to provide you a safe place to talk. You matter and your thoughts/ feelings are valid. We would like to help!

You are NOT crazy! The part of your brain concerned with survival is likely feeling frantic, causing your logical self to go offline and your emotional self to be dysregulated. Are your old triggers and dysfunctional coping responses intensifying? Trauma, loss, change, conflict, and oppression can make you feel hopeless, lonely, anxious, depressed, and distrusting of you. You don't have to be defined by your past; you can transform your life by overcoming obstacles that keep you stuck and in pain. “Your task is not to seek for love, but merely to seek and find all the barriers within yourself that you have built against it.” Rumi

Are you finding it difficult to navigate through each day, weighed down by the heavy burden of depression, anxiety, and the lingering effects of past traumas? Perhaps you're experiencing persistent feelings of sadness, hopelessness, or emptiness, making it hard to find joy in life. Maybe anxiety constantly tightens its grip on you, leaving you feeling on edge, restless, or overwhelmed by worry. And the echoes of past traumas may haunt you, manifesting as intrusive memories, flashbacks, or a pervasive sense of disconnection from yourself and others.
