Cancer Counselling Georgia | Counseling for Healing from Cancer

 A cancer diagnosis brings profound changes—not only physically, but emotionally and mentally as well. The journey from diagnosis to treatment and recovery can be overwhelming, and many patients and their families experience anxiety, fear, grief, and uncertainty.

Depression and Anxiety Counseling — White Pine Therapy

We think, “if I can just graduate, get promoted, go on that vacation or be in that relationship, then I’ll be happy.” But what if it’s the little moments that truly add up to a meaningful, joyful life? Smaller doses of daily joy can add up to more happiness and satisfaction in life than milestone moments. If you’re dealing with chronic stress, depression, severe anxiety, physical illness or major mental health issues, it can be tempting to focus on ‘getting over it.’ But sometimes, no matter how hard we try, those difficult things don’t go away quickly. A cancer diagnosis or the grief of losing a loved one can stick around for a while.  That’s why it’s essential to care for yourself during difficult experiences rather...

  HOW DOES OUR MINDSET AFFECT OUR RELATIONSHIP WITH MONEY? For many people, financial circumstances are fixed.  For example, you could be stuck at a job, unable to work, retired, on a fixed income, receiving expensive but necessary life-saving treatment, or caring for dependents.  However, even given difficult financial circumstances, it is possible to shape your view of that financial situation and money in general. Mindset determines how someone will respond to objective financial realties in life.  A hallmark of a scarcity mindset is excessive worry, obsession and fear about material resources.  It should be noted that there are very legitimate reasons to have anxiety regarding financial transitions and challenges, in which case you should consult a financial planner, social worker, or other social service resource.  A great place to start is: https://www.211unitedway.org/ .  Keys to an abundance mindset include gratefulness and a giving-attitude. ...
