Hello and welcome. My name is Mary Murphy, licensed mental health counselor with 35 years hands-on, practical approach for greater harmony, greater well-being. Experience: Full-spectrum of major mental disorders and substance abuse, along with chronic struggles that negatively impact the quality of our relationships and our own sense of fulfillment. Excessive dependency, poor handling of our own reactions to provocation and the consequences of recurring personality flaws result in strained relationships, possibly becoming rejected or hurting the others, unnecessarily. Instead, one can practice and improve our presentation resulting in far better reception we receive and value people hold for us. Win-Win is a good bet. So often people feel stuck in a rut, making the same mistakes again and again. Angry, isolated, insecure, lonely. Poor self-image with depression hold us back, as does anxiety about making changes to enhance life rather than just tolerating conditions. Conflict within the family or at work create enormous stress. Grief and loss from death of loved one, divorce, layoffs, estrangement all take a terrible toll. Starting over at any age can be accomplished, but not easily. Lingering resentment or the overwhelming panic of displacement are true obstacles. The good news is that there is real potential for improvement and I wish to help getting started on a better path; more dynamic, secure and energized. The Hebrew Book Of Proverbs offer timeless advice that can be utilized for specific relief and guidance. Beautiful words of healing and grace. The trick here is to combine this ancient philosophy with practical (clinical) tools to make it a daily habit, and then enjoy the fruits of this endeavor. Such tools are proven to assist the healing process, speed recovery, find greater success. A very worthwhile venture. The journey of a thousand miles begins with the first step. Time to begin. Can you get better? Indeed!
