Charting A New Course - Thanks To You!
Regret. Shame. Rage. Pain. Your kindness is defeating them all!
People like Darren, across Scotland will have a better future because of you.
Your wonderful gift will provide counselling to help people who have found themselves facing situations none of us would ever choose.
Reaching out to CrossReach turned out to be the most important decision I’ve made in 30 years. My therapist became the cushion at the bottom of a deep pit I’d fallen into, but she also threw me a rope to climb out. Still, I had to make the ascent myself. It wasn’t the talking that changed me, it was the listening––the processing. I needed a safe space to confront the animals in my head. The inner journey was mine to take, but with a guide to help me. After all, when life feels like a ship tossed in a storm, we need someone to anchor it. But ultimately, we must still learn to steer the vessel ourselves.
After nearly a year of therapy, my vessel is back at sea, charting new territory. My therapist is no longer on board, but the tools and wisdom she left with me are being put to excellent use.
It takes courage to name our stuff and vulnerability to accept help. But it can—and does—save your life. Trust me, I know.
I’m rebuilding my life one day at a time, and in a far more balanced way.
DarrenThank you for your commitment to caring for people like Darren.
God bless you.
