I have come to believe that life is all about connection, and that experiencing a fulfilled life is all about how we connect with ourselves, with other people, and with the world around us. This realization is based on my professional experience, as well as my own journey in life. I have experienced seasons of life surrounded by friends, yet felt isolated.

Communication is the foundation of all relationships - and while we do talk to each other every day, sometimes our communication styles just don't mesh up! Thats why my husband and I decided to seek counseling from Makarios. Thankfully, we didn't go into counseling with any major issues, but if we would have left this small issue to continue it would have grown. I am happy to report that our time with Makarios was extremely helpful. My husband and I are closer than ever - we really feel as though we are on the same team.
