A meeting that ran late at work has you rushing to get home by dinner. Your toddler was just caught cutting their hair in the bathroom. Your partner is annoyed that you came home late and they weren’t able to go to the gym. It feels like every day, the feelings of worthlessness and stress grow stronger and stronger.
The reality is, we all have bad days. There are things that upset us, make us angry, frustrate us, disappoint us, and make us sad. The challenges we encounter can affect our overall mood and functioning. But, it’s okay! Going through hardships is virtually impossible to avoid.

Do I Need Online Counseling?
The truth is, everyone could use a little help from time to time. No matter how old you are, where you’re from, or what your concerns are, working with a trusted therapist, counselor, or another mental health professional can prove to be very beneficial to your overall well being. Take these scenarios, for example:
- Tynell’s grandmother recently passed away and it hit him pretty hard. His grandmother was a rock in his life and now, without her, he doesn’t know how to move forward. He’s tried putting his energy into his hobbies and work, but he frequently gets upset and depressed. He knows he can’t bring her back, but he can’t help but think about her still living down the street from him. Tynell decides to talk to a grief counselor about what he’s going through.
- Cat and Austin are both school teachers. They work long hours and put a lot of hard work and money into their professions. Getting home at a reasonable time (and not being exhausted when they do) is not a normal thing for them. They’ve been talking about wanting to start a family of their own, but it doesn’t seem like a good idea because of everything else going on. The stress and tension are starting to take a toll on their relationship. Cat and Austin decide to work with a marriage counselor and find healthy ways to cope with their work/life balance together.
