I enjoy helping men & women who are stressed or stuck to explore their dreams. We will discover and practice the tools to give you a more rewarding and fulfilling life. I specialize in couples counseling with my husband/partner, Bob Simpson. I also work with addictions including gambling and eating disorders as well as with generalized anxiety, OCD and depression. Together we can find the keys to life balance and happiness. I hope to have fun with my clients as together we find their joy and fulfillment. Call me and let's talk and see if I can be of help to you!
I teach Active Listening skills so you will become a better listener and also feel heard in your relationships. It is important to balance one's life with time for work, time for play, health, fitness, spiritual needs, creativity and intellectual persuits. What turns you on? Where is your passion? What about life is fulfilling?
My husband and I both work out of our home. It is a relaxed, private and peaceful setting. Often Bob sees one spouse and I see the other partner and then we meet together as a four-some. We are able to get each partner's point of view and model and teach teamwork.
