"My wife forced me to do this and I"m so glad I did. It absolutely changed my life"

I was hesitant to open up a can of worms by going into intensive therapy. I didn't want to face a lot of things from the past and when I finally did, I was able to make unbelievable gains both in my personal and professional life. When I finally faced pain that I'd been pushing away my entire life, I could actually deal with it instead of it constantly coming up in unexpressed ways which lead to a lot of anger. I didn't know how to talk about a lot of this stuff and I'm so glad I did. Rabbi Shlomo made it feel comfortable the whole time.

I wanted to get better but had no idea how. Now I finally have a plan and facing the old stuff isn't that bad now that I know where it's coming from!
