Cambridge has been home to many famous people over the years, including Golden Girls actress Beatrice Arthur. Beatrice was voted “wittiest girl” by her high school class, and has certainly lived up to the reputation. Life cannot always be about comedy and laughs. Often even while you are laughing at jokes and sitcoms, inside you may not feel like laughing at all.

When life seems devoid of happiness and laughter seems forced, it is a good idea to seek out help. Cambridge-area counselors are available to assist you in finding a new balance and new hope in your life. If you need help, contact a therapist today.
