Dealing with anxiety, depression, grief and/or trauma can leave you feeling overwhelmed, confused, exhausted and unmotivated, making everyday tasks very difficult. These issues can impact not only you, but your work, your friendships and your family. Having a space to process and freely express yourself, without fear of judgment, and learning new coping skills to manage these challenges is key to healing.
