COUNSELING



By Rabbi Steven Schonblum

Many times in life situations arise to which we say, "This wasn't exactly in the game plan!"

Things don't always unfold exactly the way we expected. There are disappointments, failures, disagreements and misunderstandings. It happens to all of us. We all seem to have this in common.

Some of us deal easily with the situation at hand, while others find it stressful, difficult and draining. Some choose to hire a therapist and talk over their problems. Others may place a call to their rabbi to help try and solve the issue, or at least, to see the problem from a new and different light or perspective.



Use your rabbi. No matter how small or insignificant the problem may seem, oftentimes just telling someone helps.



You may even learn that one of our sages, prophets, or even Patriarchs, found themselves in the same or similar predicaments. Imagine, too, finding biblical commentators giving advice, insight, and moral lessons and teachings on your exact problem or dilemma.Contact the Rabbi

The Rabbi is no further than a phone call or an e-mail away. All talks are totally confidential and are free of charge.
