Do you use overthinking as a way to deal with life's challenges? Finding it difficult to be understood and manage relationships? Stress and anxiety won't let you slow down or sleep? Does sadness have a special place in your heart and mind? Having a gentle, safe space for openness, compassion, acceptance, warmth, and respect promotes a growth environment.
