Seeking an alternative to traditional therapy?
That’s why I’m here. My tools range from innovative new mind-body modalities (e.g., Energy Psychology) to the most ancient spiritual/energetic modality (shamanic healing). These tools enable me to help clients address most of the problems that licensed mental health professionals do – plus some they can’t. And usually do it more efficiently.
This is the main reason I almost always have one or more licensed therapists as clients. See the testimonials on my website.

Do you feel burned out and exhausted by "going through the motions" of everyday life? Are you floating through life, often overwhelmed, stressed, and feeling like there must be more out there? Have you recently been thinking more about who you are and what you want out of life, worried about the things that seem to get in the way?

Welcome to Williamsburg Youth Counseling, by Dane Wendell, LPC. We are excited to be in Williamsburg and to provide services to the youth in our community, through our private counseling practice. While working with your child/teen, we are able to help them navigate through their emotions and feelings along with teaching them healthy coping mechanisms. We specialize in working with youth dealing with depression, anxiety, stress, and the compounding concerns associated with them. Our practice believes that working with youth is drastically different than working with adults. Children and teens do not care about our philosophies, our educational backgrounds, or our theoretical orientations. What they do care about is their ability to relate to our counselors. Our youth today need to feel comfortable, supported, and most importantly, heard. We are able to help your child feel comfortable when starting or continuing their journey in bettering their mental health and overall wellbeing.
It continues to be my pleasure to listen to and strategize with clients from around the world. Most often people don't feel heard and understood. Let's works together to change that for you.

I feel the same way, I don't want to intrude on your post, but I am almost 38 and I am single because I feel like I can't bring any happiness to any man. I can't have kids either, I have a poor mental state and I am gaining weight and just basically living the life of a recluse. I feel terrible that I can't meet a man and give him kids, I have had too many health issues and I am older… so I feel like who would want to marry me.
But take heart! You are not single! You have a hubby.
The best advice I can give is to accept the love from your man! Don't think of the things you can't give him, think of the things you ARE giving him. There is a reason he is YOUR man! He loves you for you. Maybe you are enough, and he means it when he says he does not need kids, he has you. Try to think of what you are to him so that he will see you appreciate him and you can be happier. 🙂
I know it is easier said than done, but I would do anything for someone to love me, and if I had someone I would try to think of what I am giving him rather than what I can't give.
Thank you i understand what your saying and like u said its harder to do than say. Though i do need to count my blessing and i am grateful for my hubby. Just wish my depression and anxiety would leave me alone to enjoy my life but i guess thit's not meant to be yet:-(
Anytime u fancy a chat give us a shout we may not know what we both have been through but i can listen.
