The End or The Beginning?

September 4th, 2007

The Labor Day holiday has passed us by for yet another year. For many of us, this signals the end of the summer, the end of vacation, or maybe the end of taking life more leisurely overall. For others, it signals the beginning of the school year, the unofficial beginning of Fall, or maybe the beginning of projects put off to allow for some summer fun.

We each have a way at looking at life. It’s similar to the glass being half-empty or half-full. It all depends on your perspective or how you are feeling about your life on any particular day during any given moment in that day.

It can be stressful for some, yet soothing for others. Some people find a daily routine the most soothing while others prefer more spontaneity. And yet, for many, they prefer a mixture, a balance. of the two.

Finding balance…in our quick-paced, schedule-driven lives, that concept can seem so elusive and so foreign, yet so important. Balance is crucial to helping manage the stress we come across in our daily lives. Balance, for each of us, comes in different ways. It is important to learn what brings us balance and how to hold onto that for our own inner peace.

So maybe, as I reflect back on the meaning of this time of year, it isn’t about beginnings or endings, but more about the balance between the two…the middle ground where life flows into another day, another opportunity for growth and replenishment, and another chance to evaluate how we keep our own balance in our lives.

Hello,
We are very excited to start our new website to provide E-therapy, also sometimes called online counseling, to people who may need some assistance with an issue or problem in their lives. Our clinical social work backgrounds and years of experience in the mental health field have led us to search for ways we can bring services to people who may not want, or are not able to, go to a therapist’s office.
E-therapy does not replace, or is not a substitute for, psychotherapy, but it can be a useful tool to use when you need help with an issue or question you are facing in your life. Our experience in both inpatient and outpatient settings has allowed us to assist people with a broad range of mental health needs.
We are continually trying to improve the site and bring you information that may be useful. We are currently working on our Resource page so that we can provide a wide range of information. We always welcome any suggestions or questions you may have and hope you will share with us how we can provide better services to you both individually and through our site.
We are very excited to start this new journey in our lives and hope to be able to assist many people!
