Feeling like life has gotten beyond your abilities to handle? Perhaps you're stressed out from work, or the loss of a loved one. Perhaps there are struggles in your marriage, or you're wondering what's going on with your kids. Perhaps you are engaged and simply wanting to set yourself and your partner up for a successful marriage. Maybe your child has been diagnosed with a mental health concern and now you are concerned with how to help them. Or perhaps you or a loved one is struggling with self-harm or thoughts of suicide. Life may be difficult, but it can still be one worth living.
