General Info

People of all ages,especially young people, inspire me with their challenges, problems and pasts. I work with you, discovering the history behind the current stressors. I guide you to new ways of thinking about the past and present, and assist you in understanding your thinking and emotions. I encourage your growth though finding your own sometimes hidden strengths. I work with you for active change in your life. Couples challenged in their relationship work with me for improved communication and understanding. They walk out together, hopeful and positive again. I specialize in children and teens with challenging beginnings, and troubled times now. Teens and children find me a supportive, listening, empathic trusted counselor who finds a way look for and develop strengths for change. I work well with adults who experience problems in their current relationships, and want positive change. Adoptive families require specific information and treatment for their special children. I treat adoptive children and their families, as I know the families use different ideas and strategies with their children. Adopted children with challenging beginnings sometimes need more assistance. When you need help for your family, let me be there.
