- Dr. Alice reminds parents of the importance of repairing the relationship with their kids. Parents don’t know how long they have left on earth, nor do we know how long our kids have left. So, live with an eternal focus.

- My wife and I have been talking extensively throughout the time we’ve been separated and divorced, but I just don’t feel like my trauma is resolved yet. I don’t want to make the same mistakes like I did in the past with my anger.
- I’m going through the court system for guardianship of my 71-year-old brother who is disabled; am I taking the right steps?
- My son was violently murdered, and then my other son died from a drug overdose. Now my daughter has moved in with my son and me. I’ve struggled with finding the right counselor.
- My daughter just left her controlling husband who has Asperger’s. How do I best support her decision?
