			I created this program to help you find a way to handle those issues in daily life that cause <a href="essay.asp" onclick="cleanexit=true" class="link_hide">stress</a> and <a href="essay.asp" onclick="cleanexit=true" class="link_hide">depression</a>. It's modeled on work I've done with my patients for more than thirty years, as well as two books I've written on this subject.<br /><br />
			Most of us seldom stop long enough to analyze what's bothering us. We find ways to cover up, deny, or put off thinking about it. Clarity is absent while anxiety is high. We don't sit still to let anything sink in. We long to change things, but don't know how.<br /><br />
			In order to break that pattern, and discover the answers you need, you'll have to ask yourself the following three questions:<br /><br />
			<div id="paper1">
			<table border="0" cellspacing="8" cellpadding="0">
				<tr>
					<td width="60">&nbsp;</td>
					<td valign="top">
						1. What's bothering me?<br/>
						2. What can I do about it?<br/>
						3. Why don't I do it?<br />
					</td>
				</tr>
			</table>
			</div>
			We all become <a href="essay.asp" onclick="cleanexit=true" class="link_hide">lost</a> in the "weeds" of <a href="essay.asp" onclick="cleanexit=true" class="link_hide">conflicts</a>, <a href="essay.asp" onclick="cleanexit=true" class="link_hide">fears</a>, <a href="essay.asp" onclick="cleanexit=true" class="link_hide">self-doubts</a>, and <a href="essay.asp" onclick="cleanexit=true" class="link_hide">troubles</a>. Life seems darker than it really is unless we disentangle ourselves and <a href="essay.asp" onclick="cleanexit=true" class="link_hide">find the way out</a>.<br /><br />
			It's hard to do alone. That's where we come in. You'll be "talking" to me in each part of this program. Together, step-by-step, we'll look at your life and find the solutions that work for you.<br /><br />
			This will be a voyage of discovery. Let's take the first step by looking at what's bothering you.<br /><br />
