Emotional Wellness
Relationship Support
Relationships come in all shapes and sizes; you may be in one with a spouse, children, friends, neighbors and co-workers. Resources for Living has resources and tools to help you build, repair, nurture and strengthen our most important relationships
Anxiety and Depression
Anxiety is a normal reaction to stress and most of us ‘get the blues’ sometimes, for many, these feelings don’t last very long. If you have an anxiety disorder, the anxious feelings may not go away or when the feelings of depression affect aspects of your life, Resources for Living can help.
Grief and Loss
Loss is always hard. You may have regrets. And maybe you didn’t get to say goodbye. It’s important to take care of yourself during this time. It can help to learn more about the grief process and how to cope.
Domestic Abuse & Violence
If you or someone you care about is being undermined, degraded, controlled, or in any way emotionally or physically abused or assaulted, it’s never okay. Get support. For an emergency, call 911 or go to the nearest emergency room.
Substance Use Services
Know that substance use affects people from all walks of life. And like many chronic illnesses, addiction to opioids and other substances is treatable through a combination of medication, therapy and ongoing support. It takes strength and support to stop and live in recovery.
Adapting & Embracing Change
No matter how good, change sometimes instills anxiety, discomfort and fear of the unknown. Learn how to adapt more readily to the decisions you make – and what life throws at you.
