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!!!!

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.

We provide high quality counseling and mental health services to children, teens and adults in Virginia. We were founded on the principle that all individuals will face challenges in life, and we all posses the ability to overcome them. However, sometimes circumstances can feel overwhelming and we struggle to manage the realities of everyday life. This is when feelings of depression, anxiety and hopelessness can begin to dominate our daily reality. The good news is, by combining scientifically proven methods, you can build the resilience skills necessary to thrive, no matter what circumstances you face. We are a team of over 40 Counselor’s and Therapist’s each offering a unique skill set to meet your individualized needs.
My approach to counseling is that each individual has the potential within them to accomplish anything. My job is to help you realize that potential and to make peace with the issues that you face. Notice I never said anything about “getting over” what you have going on, because I believe that there are some things that make that impossible. But, I believe that if you are willing to work with me to achieve your goals, you can achieve the recovery you truly want
My journey to the present day has been unconventional to say the least. I’ve worked in the mental health field since graduating with my Master’s Degree in 2007. I’ve worked with many different populations in many different settings. Most recently I have been working with clients who desired to end their lives, or who were too sick to go about their daily lives. I’ve also supervised others, taught at a college level, and made presentations to other professionals. In the real world, I’ve worked in the medical field, customer service, and I’ve owned my own business. I believe this varied experience allows me to be more emphatic as well as take a more common sense approach to treatment.
I invite you to take a step toward something difficult and do something that is good for you. You always have the opportunity to go back to the way things were; that isn’t challenging in the least.
Our goal is to help you find your inner voice. We believe that everyone has within themselves the ability to affect the change they want in their lives, they just need a little help. Let us help empower you, and find your inner voice of strength.
