Clients go to counseling looking for answers. But what they really want is the answer that gets them everything they want without all things they DON’T want. This is unrealistic. A wise person knows they will always have problems, so they get good at choosing the ones they want. It seems, based on research released on the same day, that those suffering from depression may have to make a choice of the problem they want to have.   FB: /NavigateLifeTH Twitter: @TravisHillLPC Instagram: navigate_life Web: https://navigatelife.co

Navigate Life Radio 58: The Problems with Texting I discuss the benefits we get from texting, but it comes with issues that can create miscommunication and wreck relationships if not used in the right way. FB: /NavigateLifeTH Twitter: @TravisHillLPC Instagram: navigate_life Web: navigatelife.co

While it's not always the case, the tendency is for women to process through problems, while men want to fix them. This can cause a rift in a relationship. But due to the feminization of therapy, the focus has been on getting men to learn to process. But that's only half of the goal. The couple that can learn to process *and* fix will be the most successful.   FB: /NavigateLifeTH Twitter: @TravisHillLPC Instagram: navigate_life Web: navigatelife.co
