here are many types of disabilities; mental (e.g., cognitive or
learning disabilities), emotional, and physical. So too are
disabilities more personal in nature. Dealing with your disability or
that of a loved one can be challenging. Those not prepared for these
situations can experience a wide range of emotional and spiritual
problems. It is not uncommon to experience frustration, anger, denial,
grief, resentment, and/or depression. Individuals may isolate
themselves, shut down emotionally, or report difficulties with anger
management. Sometimes dealing with a disability can shake one’s faith.
Disabilities occur because of an event such as a stroke or accident,
come on over time, or something present since birth. Disabilities can
lead to depression, communication problems, family difficulties, and
other issues. Our Counselors can help you, or those you
care for, learn how to better cope with disabilities. Learn the
importance of good self-care, the need for social support, and to
communicate in a manner in which your needs are met.
