I have learned throughout life some people are placed in situations without the power to choose and some choose situations because they lack skills and knowledge of the effects of their decisions. Many individuals practice learned behaviors and the cycle continues for generations. Change is sometimes difficult to see with closed eyes. If you have been struggling with emotional, mental or even physical difficulties and want your life to change, now is the time to seek that change. Counseling can be the change you need to improve situations that hinder your progress.
