The daily news reports about the negative impact of tobacco products are scary. The cost of tobacco products keep rising.

Now you can choose to quit AND to obtain the emotional, psychological and peer supports in order to succeed. Q.U.I.T. (sm) is our cognitive-behavioral approach to helping you "Quit Unwanted Intake of Tobacco" (sm).

"Relax … and Live Better !” Workshop

Everybody is stressed by something!

In our daily lives, we are each exposed to a variety of stressors – circumstances, expectations, realities, and invasions into our lifestyles -- that cause us some degree of tension, anxiety, frustrations, and/or anger or depression. Recent events added a whole new layer to our stress. Each of us is an individual, with his/her own needs, priorities, previous experiences in life, and coping skills, and behaviors. However, we each can learn to view and manage what happens to us with less distress and to meet life’s challenges and opportunities in a healthier, successful manner.

The Adolescent & Family Counseling Center, LLC, offers you an opportunity to increase your own ability to negotiate daily life more successfully. A Stress Management & Relaxation Workshop. Click here to view the “Relax … and Live Better!” ™ flyer.
