So I had therapy today finally. I was actually looking foward to go and talk to my therapist you know letting her know the bad and the good. Then she started saying shit and I went from 0-100000 in the matter of seconds with anger. I totally went off on her. She said I wasn't trying to stop cutting. I was like WHAT THE FUCK DID YOU SAY, HOW THE FUCK AM I NOT FUCKING TRYING TO STOP FUCKING CUTTING MYSELF. Dude I went nuts. Then I was like I HATE when people judge me who the hell are you or anyone else to judge me you no one knows what I think all the time or what I do and dont do to get better. Then she was like Im not judging you.. The she said I shouldnt be with this kid that I really like alot, she said he is unhealthy. I was like dude at least he gets it, he has been where I am, he has cut, and for once he is a positive person to be with no drugs and all. I got pissed. She then was like why are you pushing all this on me. And I was like YOU KEEP SAYING I AINT DOING NOTHING TO GET BETTER THAT I GET A STEP FOWARD AND 5 STEPS BACK AND YOU DONT KNOW WHY IT HAPPENS SO SHUT YOUR FACE. Needless to say she saw me getting ready to just freak out which she knows next move is punch her, hurt myself or something else so she knocked her shit off. Then she started talking about me going to the day program there thats 9-3:30 5 days a week.. I was like HELLLLL NO I hate day programs I get bored and then get myself in trouble. As we where talking on the way down I had said my boy is there, and she was like well i cant send you there then, I wish like I know and I wouldnt go. She was like I could twist your arm somehow and youd go. I turned around as was like trust me you wont change it and if you say i cant see you if I dont then Oh well Ill go kill myself before I go to that shit hole. SO I got homework writting what I think others see when they see me and stuff like that. Pretty lame basically since really I could care less if most people dont like me, they sure as hell talk about me alot though.. So hey Im the center of their universe YAY!!! So in closing why is the human race so fast to judge people really?

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.

Anxiety and trauma can live in our bodies - together we will create a relationship that fosters dynamic and lasting growth, tapping into undiscovered reserves of resiliency that will help navigate the past and prepare for a more hopeful future.
Chances are - if you are reading this - you've come to a place that is unfamiliar or uncomfortable. You either are experiencing symptoms like anxiety, depression, or grief in a way that you never have before. Or maybe, you are just not functioning at the same high level that you have come to expect from yourself. This past year has added to our normal stressors and strains, and it is no surprise that you are feeling it. When you've experienced something that exceeds your ability to cope, you have experienced a trauma. This can be a catastrophic event, but it doesn't have to be.
