I was having a lot of trouble dealing with my children's mental and emotional issues. I went to various places and people for help with no positive results. Finally, I came into a blessing and her name was Kesha Jackson.My oldest son was diagnosed with bipolar and at this point we didn't understand it at all. As you know trying to deal with things that you don' t understand are very difficult and trying. My second son was diagnosed with oppositional defiant disorder. One more thing to figure out how to deal with which was very frustrating . He was impossible to control, understand and handle. The first time that she met them she said she could help us . I was skeptical seeing as I had been a million places and tried a million different  approaches. The first time she worked with them the oldest took to her right away and she started getting him to understand what he was going through was normal and she gave him ways to cope and communicate. Now the second one was the kicker.  He called her every name in the book.  Yelled at her and hid in his closet. I was thinking there is no way this is going to help him. She told me to give him a minute and went in after him and sat next to him talking calmly saying that's not how you treat   people. I was thinking he doesn't care how he treats people. He came out of the closet about ten minutes later and apologized. I was in awe. I am happy to say that she stuck through the good, bad and the ugly and that today we are a much greater family unit. She made me see that I wasn't the issue and that anything is possible if you stick through the tough stuff. Through the love and education given by her we learned to understand things that were going on and how to move forward. If I had to do it over again I wouldn't change a thing.  She brought so much understanding and insight into the mental health aspect of my children. I think she is honestly one of the most open, caring and best person that I have ever met in my life. She is honest even when it's not what you want to hear. She is open to your insight and opinions. She will always guide you in a better direction and honestly loves you through the pain. Dealing with mental health patients is a tough job for everyone. I am positive in saying that with her it was so much more rewarding and fulfilling at the end of the day to see a family succeed. I hope that this gives you a little insight on the beauty and understanding of Kesha. I'm sure that you will love her and the experience of working with her as much, if not more than I have.
