So ya both functions went off smoothly as well as the access aids Christmas party,so in a 1 month period access held 3 large events.Lots of folks attended the breakfast but only to PHA's were in Attendence,a fact that was pointed out to me.While there were several PHA's at the Candle light Vigil,there was again NO local news coverage at ANY of these events,kinda strange given the fact that they were held near the dec 1 date.The xmas party was alot smaller this year-as we have lost more then a few clients this year,their missing but not forgotten faces were missed litterly as we noticed how much smaller the gathering was compared to other years.Seems to be the trend though,at the breakfast it was anounced that the GOV will be cutting funding for ASOs by 30% this yr.& this when Access Aids Staff has Been bumped up to almost 20 – & NONE are HIV+ as our local ASO isnt following the GIPA Principles at all!!!i want to look into this further & find out just what education i need to get in the door there ,or maybe BC.as i have never been there i want to go check it out as soon as i can.ohya i went to trial & got 2 years probation with 1`50 hrs of community servie work ,so ,the crown stated that its 'now up to you mr gough,to prove to us that you are the changed man you say you are"Like all of my work that i have been doing so far didnt count for shit,i wasnt too happy,but had to plead guilty & take another mark on my record.I was already to start applying for pardens but now theres o many of them it will cost a fotrune to get them all done!!!BUT i told a girl on facebook that i was HIV+ & she still sent me kisses & hugs…i was impressed,she seems ok but never types or writes back to me.So i wonder if she really likes me or is just being nice to me.Its been so long since i dated or anything…well if not her there will be another,& watever one gets me will be in for some laughter,romance,sunsets & blueskies ,mix in some good tunes & movies, & lots of prayer thrown in & who knows eh folkds?not me ,not now anyhow,GODBLESS ALL MY FELLOW WARRIORS,we need to blog,create front lines of attack against HIV-aids,the more the better our chances of winning-blog,websites,keep a daily diary and tell the world what its like living with HIV or AIDS on a daily basis~peace n love eh folks not wars n walls!!!!

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.

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.

When people see you, they think you have a perfect life. You're focused, determined, and accomplished, but when you look on the inside, you feel lost and incapable of living up to your potential. You see the negative version of yourself, and no matter how hard you try to change, you just haven't been able to get over that hump. It's become exhausting, and you feel like giving up. Don't be last in your own life, while taking care of everyone else. You're tired of always having to be strong, when you feel like everything is against you. Instead of living life stressed out, it's time for a change.
You want to finally relax and enjoy the life you’ve worked so hard to create. You want to learn this whole "self-care" thing and finally learn how to put yourself first without feeling guilty or selfish. You're ready to quiet the inner critic so that you can feel more positive and create the change you want in your life. I can help you get there.
I guarantee discretion and tailor-made concierge services to all clients, particularly high-profile-high-public-exposure-high-stress persons. NO e-tracking.

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.
