Forth Worth Counseling For Marriages Witnesses High Demand

January 12th, 2010

Ft. Worth, TX ( Pressreleasehome ) January 12, 2010 – The rising incidences of marital discord and divorces in the past few years in Ft Worth and other areas of Texas, has been a question of concern, according to the findings of Fort Worth counseling organizations like Lifeworks Group P.A. Fort Worth psychotherapists and counselors have pointed out that there seems to be no apparent reason for a marital relationship to break apart in certain cases. Though the reasons cited as lack of compatibility, lack of space in a relationship and infidelity, Fort Worth counselors believes that most of these ‘in trouble’ relationships can be salvaged with proper counseling.

Fort Worth counseling services like Lifeworks Group P.A are geared towards strengthening marital relationship and counseling the married couple to keep their relationship rock-steady. One of the reasons for most relationships to fall apart is lack of communication. Lifeworks Group P.A shows people effective ways to communicating and opening your heart out to your partner instead of sulking or expressing them in a manner which can make your partner react negatively.

According to a research by Ft Worth counseling services for marriages and relationship problems, though most of the people facing a huge marital issue do need counseling, they avoid doing so because they are not confident about asking for help. According to a noted Ft Worth psychotherapist in Lifeworks Group P.A, “So many clients have failed to realize that the person they have a problem with, was once a person, they had fallen madly in love with. It is basically a communication problem which needs to be resolved. Of course, there are other issues in marriage but communication is one of the most important ones that need to be taken care of.”

Fort Worth Counseling Services have been able to successfully resolve a lot of relationship and marriage related problems, by adopting a sensitive stand on the situation. There are several things that are in danger due to a marital rift like breaking up of a family if you have children, losing out on happiness, and losing out on many things that can be mentally and physically blissful as a married couple.

The onus of Fort Worth counselors have always been to settle all marital discord and infuse peace, harmony and love among couples. Pioneering Fort Worth counseling organizations have kept pace with the rising marital disharmony and have successfully resolved most of the cases to the satisfaction of the concerned couples.

Lifeworks Group P.A. was established in Fort Worth in early 2000 where it soon recruited an open-minded and creatively led Ft Worth counseling team. It has been singled out as one of the preferable Forth Worth counseling organizations to go to for marital problems and rifts. The counseling offered at Lifeworks Group P.A. covers aspects like building stronger marriages, women’s issues, men’s issues, helping kids caught in a divorce conflict, divorce recovery, premarital connection, adultery, sexual closeness, balancing marriage and career, spiritual growth etc.

Dallas Counseling Services in High Demand, Due to Poor Student Mental-Health

January 5th, 2010

Ft. Worth, TX ( Pressreleasehome ) May 1, 2010 – Falling standards of mental health in students of Universities in the state of Texas are causing increased pressure on Ft Worth counseling organizations such as ‘LifeWorks Group P.A’. Universities and Ft Worth psychotherapist groups are reporting high numbers of young adults who suffer with depression, anxiety and other mental disorders.

According to the University of Texas in Dallas, there has been a 32% increase in the number of their students seeking counseling over the past half a decade. This is not simply due to an increase in the number of students either, as enrollment growth reached just 8.9%. Luckily for these students, LifeWorks Group P.A offers uniquely creative Ft Worth counseling services, covering a huge range of problems, from family counseling and parenting issues, to chemical dependency, depression, anxiety and eating disorders.

“Every Ft Worth counselor at LifeWorks has a creative background that they apply to their work.” says a counselor at Lifeworks Counseling. “No case is ever the same as another, so using a musical, theatrical or artistic approach for each helps to treat people as individuals, rather than as products of their disorder or type of problem.”

LifeWorks Group P.A was established in Dallas, Fort Worth in early 2000 where it soon recruited an open-minded and creatively led Ft Worth counseling team. By employing a different approach to therapy – such as working with more than one counselor at a time, introducing animals and celebrating when someone makes a breakthrough – the number of visitors they had began to increase.

Today, each Ft Worth psychotherapist at LifeWorks Group P.A finds themselves almost overwhelmed by the number of young adults and in particular college and university students coming through their doors. Yet due to their creative and somewhat unusual approach to what can be a dark and terrifying experience, LifeWorks’ Ft Worth counseling services seem to work very well with this young and troubled age group.

Dr. Gloria and Dr. Heidi Horsley of The Open To Hope Foundation Win Two Prestigious Book Awards

December 29th, 2009

New York, NY ( Pressreleasehome ) December 29, 2009 – Real Men Do Cry named Two-TimeWinner in 2009 President’s Book Awards from the Florida Publishers Association in Recognition of Excellence in Publishing

The Florida Publishers Association recently honored the best books in 11 categories at the annual President’s Book Awards handed out in Sarasota, FL. Judges for the awards competition were professional librarians from across the state who specialize in scrutinizing books for excellence in all areas – readership value and appeal, writing, editing, layout, and design.

Real Men Do Cry: A Quarterback’s Inspiring Story of Tackling Depression and Surviving Suicide Loss by Eric Hipple with Dr. Gloria Horsley and Dr. Heidi Horsley was named the gold winner in the “President’s Pick” category and the silver winner in the “Adult Non-Fiction” category.

Real Men Do Cry is an incredible story of tragedy and triumph. Eric experienced a debilitating downward spiral after his 15-year-old son died of suicide. Bankrupt and jailed for drunk driving, Eric sought therapy for his own depression and was able to make an amazing comeback. Eric works with the University of Michigan Depression Center as an outreach coordinator, where he travels nationwide speaking to teens and adults about ways to recognize the signs of depression and risks for potential suicide.

Endorsements for Real Men Do Cry:

“This is an important book for everyone – fathers, husbands, sons, and the women who care about them. Eric’s message is powerfully delivered: men with depression need to seek help. It’s not only the courageous thing to do; it can save lives.”

– Robert Gebbia, Executive Director, American Foundation for Suicide Prevention

“Real men get depression. As a good quarterback, Eric decided to share his knowledge and passion in the belief that he could help explain the game plan to win this struggle…”

– John F. Greden, M.D., Executive Director, University of Michigan Depression Center

“This book is difficult to put down. Eric Hipple . . . tells the real deal about men and depression. Seeking help for depression is not a weakness or a character flaw but a sign of strength and empowerment.”

– Donna Holland Barnes, Ph.D., President of the National Organization for People of Color Against Suicide

Eric’s life’s work—supporting a program of suicide prevention is fueled by the conviction that, thousands of deaths can be prevented through recognizing the signs of depression and intervention. Eric is an example that everyone can rise above adversity and make a difference in the world.

“We’re excited to bring Eric’s story and mission of hope to the world,” this was a very inspiring book to write with Eric, commented Dr. Gloria Horsley, Host of ‘Healing the Grieving Heart” and Founder and President of The Open to Hope Foundation, sponsor of “Healing the Grieving Heart” and The Grief Blog.

People Search Has Become an Indispensable Tool for Business Too

September 12th, 2009

Lodi, CA ( Pressreleasehome ) September 11, 2009 – The concept of the free online people search started with the main goal of helping people find lost contacts. The basic idea of helping people connect has propelled the online people search concept to great importance in social media. Nowadays with the numerous success stories about businesses using social networks in their promotion strategy, savvy online marketers are using this free people search as a tool for growing their business by finding and verifying new contacts.

We had a chat with one of the best free people search service providers to find out more details about this new trend in business promotion. “The free people search concept was mainly developed to find lost friends and relatives. Unlike the old days, when people were limited in the tools they had to find long lost friends, today, the free people search service is the first stop in a long line of easy and effective tools. Most savvy online marketers use every available opportunity to connect with people as a tool for business promotion. That is one reason behind the huge success of the use of social networking in business promotion. Now with readily available access to the contact details of potential clients for their business, online marketers are swarming towards the free people search services.” says Mr. JD Angel of searchnoggin.com.

Speaking about the benefits that the online marketer can get through the use free people search services, Mr. JD Angel said, “Unlike the common white pages, the free people search option will help marketers to get targeted clients. For example if you have a local business in Atlanta, you can narrow the people search to this location and refine from there. You will be presented with a large contact list of people, in that particular area, that you can narrow down. Actually this is one of the easiest ways to expand the client base for any type of business. Although the free people search utility was not originally meant for business promotion, this concept is growing in popularity as a great business promotion tool.”

Speaking on the move, Mr. JD Angel said, “This shift in using free people search as a great business promotion tool has certainly taken this concept to the next level. Each month people search is being improved with more search and networking features.”
