Dear Hurting Person,

Perhaps life for you has become so painful or complicated that you do not know what to do for relief. Is your experience of suffering overwhelming? Do your problems appear to have no real solutions? Are the very things that you used to do to cope with life, no longer working? Are you feeling in despair?

Pain expresses itself through many feelings: loneliness, anxiety, grief, inadequacy, guilt, shame, emptiness, fear, obsession, sadness, depression and even anger or rage. Confusion reigns when you are lost in anguish. Stress often restricts your clarity of thought and inhibits action.

Sometimes, someone outside the situation can see things more clearly. Sharing it can take a real load from you, especially when the person is encouraging, respectful of your unique personality & circumstances.

I care about all the distress that you are in and offer my professional clinical counseling services. Please call and allow me the privilege of getting to know you to help. May God console and strengthen you in all your troubles!
