         Sexual Violence affects millions of Americans everyday          Every 2 minutes an American is sexually assaulted   In the current presidential campaign we have a candidate, Donald J Trump, who was heard, and seen, on video proudly boasting about being able to kiss and grope women and “move on” a married woman “like a bitch” and then passed it off as “Locker Room Talk.” Moments after the video was released, women (and men) across the globe began to experience deep feelings of anxiety, depression, fear, sadness and helplessness.

Happy National Kiss & Makeup Day! We all have arguments with those we love. Whether a marital tit for tat, an argument with a bestie, a clash with a co-worker or a feud with a family member, we all can relate. For some it takes a kiss to let go of the hurt that we feel in our heart. For others, it takes some counseling because we need to say more about what is going on. But, it is not a bad idea to start with a kiss, in fact, it’s a great way to break the ice after a grudge...

Dr. Eris, Ever since I was a kid, I felt forced into Valentine’s Day, and forced into expressing love in a way that I’m not ready to. This occasion ruins the natural process of love. It’s a complete set up, which I think was created by the female of the species. I care about my current girlfriend; but with Valentines Day right around the corner, I’m put into this position once again. I don’t know how to express myself, or what to give her. I even have the thought of breaking up with her before the holiday and then getting back...

I learned early on in life that every person I loved was sure to disappoint me somewhere along the yellow brick road. This was proven to me, even more so, in love relationships.

Dr. Eris, Why can’t I let go of my dad cheating on my mom after so many years?  Am I making excuses for my past bad behavior? I’m smart about why my relationships don’t work???? Sometimes I am lazy about not wanting to do the work it takes to hold the relationship together. And I have trust issues. I usually sabotage situations because I don’t deal with rejection well. I always think relationships should be easy, and not so much work. I currently have been sabotaging all of my relationships. I was in a very unhappy marriage for 13 years. I was the cheater in the marriage–separated now 3 years. The hubby was a workaholic...
