Feeling better about yourself leads to feeling better about life. Much of our stress comes from our negative thinking about ourselves which makes us feel negative about others and about life. You can change your life by changing your thinking. Having trust in your therapist is also what it's all about.

This leads to having a deep understanding of my patients who feel that from me right away. www.connienumbers.com
