Boundaries: When to Say Yes, How to Say No To Take Control of Your Life

Boundaries: When to Say Yes, How to Say No To Take Control of Your Life

by Henry Cloud, John Townsend

Christians often focus so much on being loving and giving that they forget their own limits and limitations. Have you ever found yourself wondering: Can I set limits and still be a loving person? How do I answer someone who wants my time, love, energy, or money? Why do I feel guilty when I consider setting boundaries?

About Benita

Benita Weems, MA, MDIV, LMHC

Licensed Mental Health Counselor

My goal during our sessions is for you to feel that you are in a safe space and can take a moment to breathe. Change and growth can be hard work, but you will not have to face it alone. Even in the darkest areas, I believe that light can be found and that together we can discover the path forward. Although it is not always easy, there is always hope. With God’s help and proven therapeutic techniques, you can overcome the things that hold you back, become empowered, and believe the truth that you are valuable and loved. View Benita's Profile
