I started seeing Judith during a difficult time in my marriage. My husband was emotionally abusive and unfaithful and I was emotionally drained. I was devastated as I cared about him greatly and wanted desperately to ""fix"" things so we could keep our family together. I am a rescuer by nature and felt that if I tried hard enough, we could get through this. Judith was instrumental in helping me understand the ""big picture"" which was ultimately that much of this was out of my control. It's been a year full of sadness and anguish, but I ultimately knew that I had to take care of myself and our two young children. After much consideration, I ultimately filed for divorce and it was final recently. It's been a very difficult process, but despite the pain, I feel I did the right thing for the sake of myself and our children. The bottom line for me was that it's less destructive to raise our children in a peaceful, stable environment and work amicably with their father to raise them RATHER THAN stay in a situation that is filled with turmoil, dissension and hostility. It's still a difficult journey at times, but I know I made the right decision. It's hard to think clearly when you are in the middle of a crisis like this, but Judith was able to help me see things more clearly. I can honestly say that she believed in me more than I believed in myself. She puts a lot of emphasis on outlining goals and helping you achieve them. Judith has a special gift of helping people whether it be individual issues, marital issues, etc! I am so grateful to have found her and will absolutely seek her counsel in the future. I recommend her to anyone in need of a counselor.
