Clients come to me in trying times for help dealing with issues like depression, grief, anger and marriage issues. I don't see myself as the "expert" who is going to provide all the "answers" but I do promise to walk with my clients as they address the issues we identify together that they want to in therapy. I am comfortable working one on one, or with couples and families from age 6 to adults. I'm also a Pastor and a Chaplain so I have been theologically trained and can explore spiritual issues and crises as a pastoral counselor.
I enjoy working with couples, resolving and mending their relational problems. I have written a book entitled, “Relationship Therapy.” I also have a interest in adolescent and youth issues. My hope is to help clients move from "being a victim" to "becoming a victor." My desire is to be a "calming presence" in the midst of stormy times.
Adolescent and youth issues are huge topics in today's society. Tackling these issues, I hope to move them from being labeled as troubled teens to talented teenagers. My experience of 13 years in the Educational field, with 20 years in Ministerial counseling, helps me to understand my purpose.
