Range of Personal Problems:

 

Marriage and Family Relationships - The relationships we have with our spouse or partner, our children and extended family members are vital connections and are often sources of nurture and support. Occassionally, they can also be the source of conflict, uncertainty, ambivalence and loss.

Addictions - People can find themselves addicted to substances such as caffeine, tobacco, alcohol or drugs, or to behaviors and relationships. All addictions have a negative impact on the health and emotional well being of the person who is addicted, as well as their family members and co-workers.

Grief and Loss - Grief and loss are a part of life. The intense reactions that come with loss are difficult and often overwhelming. It takes time and caring support to incorporate loss into the rest of our lives.

Stress - Everyone experiences stress. Each individual needs to develop skills and regular practices in order to become resilient in the face of everyday pressures.

Coping with Change - Sometimes change is planned and welcomed. Other times change is unanticipated and unwelcome. In either case we must call on our internal resources and external supports to cope, adapt and grow.

Parenting - Parenting is a long-term project. Being a parent gives new meaning and purpose to our lives. It also presents new challenges at many points along the way.

Job and Career - We spend “the best years of our lives” working at our jobs. We invest ourselves and anticipate that our workplace will provide a level of satisfaction, a sense of accomplishment, and will meet some of our personal and social needs. Maintaining commitment and motivation can ebb and flow throughout our careers.

Balance of Work and Family Life - Managing the demands of work responsibilities, career aspirations and family commitments are a reality of modern life. Energy, flexibility, and resourcefulness are required.

Financial and Legal - Finding the right resources to help with financial and legal concerns is an important step in resolving issues that are often complex.
