Who Am I?

You may be dealing with fear and anxiety or their ugly step-sibling, depression.  If so, I hope you will find some helpful words or, at least, an occasional smile on this blog.  I am not trying to fix your problems, just trying to provide a different perspective on them.

I am a licensed counselor (LCPC) in the state of Illinois.  I specialize in relationships, anxiety, depression and busy schedules. You can find more information at www.virtuallyfearless.com.

I called this blog “Almond in Your Head” because there is a small structure in the brain called the “Amygdala”.  The Amygdala functions as our early warning threat detector.  The word “Amygdala” is Latin for “almond”.
