Dr Dada at Lifestream is pretty good. He splits his time between a couple of clinics, but part of it is at Colony Counseling (near Villages Health Colony clinic. They have a 24 hour hot line at 866-355-9394. That same number will, if memory serves me, connect you to their screening person who will talk with you before scheduling you. Be honest with them about how anxious you feel - if you minimize, you will move down the priority list.

In the mean time, there are lots and lots of good people on TOTV. PM the ladies above and have coffee with them. If nothing else, you'll know that others care.
