I WAS FORTUNATE ENOUGH TO BE REFERRED TO EAST BAY COUNSELING AROUND 1980 AFTER EXPRESSING GREAT EMOTIONAL DISTRESS TO MY DERMATOLOGIST. DR. JOSEPH LITCHMAN OF EAST BAY COUNSELING INTERVIEWED ME AS A WALK-IN AND ENCOURAGED ME TO TO SEEK COUNSELING IF NOT WITH HIM BUT WITH SOMEONE VERY SOON. HE EXPLAINED THE PROCESS IN BRIEF AND TOLD ME I WAS BRAVE TO KNOW THAT I HAD A PROBLEM. NEEDLESS TO SAY WITHOUT GRAND DETAIL I SOUGHT HIS COUNSEL. IT IS THIRTY SOME ODD YEARS LATER AND I AM STILL REAPING THE REWARD OF THAT COUNSELING. GOD ONLY KNOWS THE MESS I WOULD HAVE BEEN IN TODAY WITHOUT IT. I OWE MY HEALTHY MENTAL OUTLOOK TODAY TO THIS PROCESS ABSOLUTELY. IF YOU NEED HELP DO NOT HESITATE TO CONTACT THIS CENTER. DR. LITCHMAN IS AN HONEST, HARDWORKING, CARING, PROFESSIONAL PERSON WITH STRAIGHT TALK. THANK YOU FOR EVERYTHING DR. L. "AND YES, THERE IS MORE THAN ONE CANDY BAR! I AM ENJOYING THE REWARD OF THE SECOND ONE VERY MUCH". GOD BLESS YOU. "MAEBELLE HESTER'
