Irregardless of how connected technology might make us today, it's actually a gift to know how to truly connect and collaborate with others in an authentic and valuable way. One person who I've found that does this intuitively is Jessica Brown, a truly gifted member of the new paradigm healers coming into their own in the Bay Area. She embodies the gift of empathic collaboration- both as a business partner and skilled professional therapist. The therapeutic process is a partnership based on the therapist's authenticity and skill, two qualities which Jessica possesses naturally.

Our children were 5 and 8 years old when we attended this program. It saved our marriage AND it…read moresaved our family! It gave us and taught us how to use the tools to have a good, healthy marriage. It is NOT like the groups you see on TV where people sit around spilling their guts. Rather, it is a classroom setting where you get to hear the presenters share how they were able to save their own marriages/families. No one ever asked us what our problems were. Instead, they just taught us how to do things in a healthy way. It's not taught by professionals. Rather it is taught by couples who have gone through major marriage difficulties themselves, attended this program and came through the other side. If you are reading this you need help. What have you got to lose? Just do it.

I have had some decent results in this time with tools for management and wellness. I would recommend these services for short term care, but I can't say how much it is because it is covered as part of services provided. Sometimes we all just need a little extra help. If you need someone to talk to give their 24-hour phone service a call and you will be answered by a sympathetic clinician. Good service.
