Anxiety/Depression: is it interfering with a sense of purpose, success, hope for your future, relationships, and your job? Grief/unexpected losses of a loved one, friend or pet: holding you back from moving forward? Unresolved traumatic memories triggered when least expected, affecting relationships?
