I met with my physical therapist, and he suggested I try counseling. I have been trying to lose weight over the past year. Now I decided I wanted to have weight loss surgery and was concerned that my depression might return.

I need someone to talk to. I have been married for 23 years. I am always angry and take it out on my family.

I met you some time ago at a conference and felt you had a good spirit. I am looking for a counselor to help me sort out some personal stuff, and your name came to mind. Are you accepting new patients?

I read your bio on the "Alma" provider profile list. I may have traumas, and I think we all do. I mainly want to work on my anxiety. I have three children, 1, 4, and 7 years old, and things are very stressful in my house. I also want to talk about nutrition, which seems may be helpful too.

I am an executive for the health care industry. I am looking for someone to talk with about personal issues. My work is demanding, so I need someone who has a flexible schedule. I am looking for a professional working with women and managing sexual assaults. My contact is below, and I look forward to you returning this call.

I was hoping to talk to you about my issue. I have called a few other counselors but I like your website. I think you can help me. My girlfriend of 10 years took a job and left the country. I can't seem to manage this alone. I can barely get up to go to work. My roommate says I should talk with someone and helped me to find you. I am looking to come into your office in Placentia. Can I make an appointment?

I came across your site and I think you may be a good match
for my mom. She is older and I am worried about her. She
was recently diagnosed with breast cancer and has started
various treatments. I am worried because her mood has
changed. She does not want to go outside or talk with family.
She stays to herself and sometimes I think she cries in the
bathroom. Can she contact you for more information?

I need help. The past months have been difficult. My business
has suffered over the last two years. Now I found out I have
medical issues. My doctor recommended that I talk with
someone from my insurance. However, I don’t feel
comfortable doing this. I am trying to keep things together
for my family. I don’t want them to see me like this. Do you
work with patients like this? Can I schedule an appointment
over the phone?

I want to know if you work with teenagers. My daughter is struggling. She is anxious, and I have noticed this more since she has been back to school. She has had panic attacks. I took her to the doctor, and they told me she had anxiety. They gave her
anxiety medication, but she did not want to take it. She tells me that the pills make her feel worse. She fears that something terrible will happen to her at school. I decided to keep her home this year, but things are getting worse. She told me she needed
someone to talk to that wasn't me. I let my Pastor know, and she was participating in the teen youth group at camp, but something happened, and she stopped. She won't talk about it. She is available during the day, and I think it would be good if she couldcome to your office. You are a little far, but I am willing to bring and drop her off. Can you let me know if you can work with her and what your fees are?

Hi, I don't know if you can help me, but I need someone to talk to with everything going on. I am anxious. Do you work with anxious people? I started a new job, and I have more responsibilities. My family tells me I am changing. The truth is they just don't understand the pressures of work and life. I have friends, but I try to be strong for them. I tend to keep my feeling inside, and it is hard to open up and show other people my vulnerable side. A co-worker suggested I talk with someone, but I don't want to go through the EAP process. It is essential that things can be confidential. I don't want my
job to find out. My co-worker said, you were good, but I'm not sure you can help me. Do you think we are a good match?

Hello, I wanted to know if you specialize in childhood trauma. I have been looking for a counselor for my daughter. Something happened to her, and she was a victim of a crime. I will tell you more later. Do you work with teenagers? She wants to go to
counseling to talk with someone, and she has been increasingly anxious over the past few weeks. Her father and I are worried about her, and with school starting up again, we want to get her some help now. Can you let us know what the rate is for weekly
counseling?

Hello, I’m not sure what to say, but I know I need help. I have been suffering most of my life since a child. I have been in and out of bad relationships. I talk with my mom. She has been in and out of my life. This relationship is complicated. She is critical,
judgmental, and other times loving and kind. My dad is kind, and he was present most of my life. But I realized I do not know much about him. It is hard for me to connect to him. I say this because I think my childhood has made relationships difficult for me as an adult. I blame others a lot, and it seems as if I get into
emotionally distant relationships. I am ready to look at myself. I am prepared to change. I am tired of this suffering, and I think you may be able to help me.
