I have my own children who have struggled with these issues.
You're starting a new school year, new job, or new relationship. Anxiety and depression is your constant companion and you can't eat or sleep. You feel sick without having any symptoms that the doctor can address. You see yourself as inadequate or a loser and will never be able to succeed. Every medication that has been tried has only made you feel worse or you recognize that you are taking too much. There has got to be a better way.

Congratulations on taking the first step to improving your well-being! Are you and your child feeling stressed, anxious or disconnected? Is your child struggling to find the words to express what they are experiencing? Behavior is a form of communication for children, let me help you understand what your child is trying to express. Emotional stress can have a significant impact with how we relate to others, how we manage feelings, and what we think/feel about ourselves. I am committed to help you or your child identify and heal from the negative experiences and life stressors that led you to reach out for help.

Sometimes life throws a curveball that wasn't anticipated, is difficult to handle, or that just seems unfair. While some things can't be changed -- the way circumstances are experienced and the responses we make to our circumstances requires skills that can be learned and applied to improve quality of life. The things we say to ourselves when facing overwhelming circumstances, disappointment, and injustice are vitally important. Whether you contend with uninvited trauma, grief and loss, anxious or depressed moods, or challenges in significant relationships, it is important to make choices that nurture meaningful life experience.

Gaming Addiction creates a void that many people don't understand. The hours that are wasted, the Shame, Regret, and Exhaustion that are felt, and the lies that you tell to your friends, significant other, and yourself. For some reason, even after being worn out, your hands keep coming back to the game. Part of your soul gets trapped in the experience, and never really leaves. Escaping the prison can seem impossible. It's easy to get trapped, but it doesn't have to be your prison forever.

My goal is to make a positive lasting difference in your child's life. By evaluating how they learn, I can help identify thier potential for success and explain their challenges. With this information I then can help develop intervention strategies and instructional supports that may require a section 504 or an Indivdual Education Plan. It is my belief that every child has learning differences, but by creating a love for learning and resilience, they can achieve great accomplishments.
