+ Are you experiencing depression, anxiety, or other symptoms that you think are related to a traumatic incident in your distant or recent past? + If the trauma was extended over time, such as a childhood or adult abusive relationship, do you feel like something is wrong with you, or experience feelings like fatigue, lack of motivation, low self esteem or distance from loved ones? + If you experienced a catastrophic event such as being attacked, being in combat, an accident or natural disaster, do you experience nightmares, flashbacks, or unexplainable symptoms like sudden temper flare ups, bursting into tears, or spacing out?

At times life can be unusually painful, scary and confusing. With the COVID-19 virus we are living through such a time. Generally speaking, we may feel anxious, sad, discouraged and alone, and not know what to do. When someone listens to us carefully, we learn how to listen to ourselves, to our own inner life. Talking things out with someone in this special way can help us become clearer about who we are, our strengths and also our self-defeating ways, so we can move forward with an improved sense of self and direction.
