August, a sweet female Shiba Inu, has gone missing in the Landmark area of Alexandria, VA, at the intersection of Duke St and N Paxton. She went missing April 10th, just before 3 PM. At the time of the disappearance, she was under the care of a colleague of her owners, who are currently overseas. Despite efforts to locate the dog, there have been no sightings, which suggests that someone may have taken her. Hundreds of flyers have been distributed within a 3 mile radius of where she went missing, thanks to friends of the colleague and caring volunteers. Professional Pet Trackers were hired and the track was a very short one, leaving the family to conclude she was put into a car somewhere on the opposite side of that intersection. We are calling on the community’s help – We are pleading for you to share her flyer to help get the word out and help us reunite this sweet girl with her family, who miss her terribly.

Jane Hanley counsels women who are feeling extra anxiety and sadness, helping them rebuild self-compassion, strength and a renewed sense of purpose. If a client has weathered a painful storm recently, she can help them process their experience safely so they can heal and fully reflect on their experience.  Doing so helps her clients ultimately live life to the fullest.

Clients feel safe with Jane to not put on the happy face the rest of the world might demand of us.  Sessions are definitely a place where it’s ok to not be ok.  That comfort to feel and experience ultimately fosters self knowledge, growth and room for more emotions to flourish, such as joy and motivation.
