Entering this field a bit later in life, it was not without gaining, and continuing to gain, multiple perspectives associated with trials stemming from family of origin, marital, trauma, secondary trauma, relationship, parenting-to raise/parenting-to-prepare, job-related, adoption/reunification, loss, life transition and elder care issues. I know life's journey to be replete with challenges. I also know it to be rich, adventurous, rewarding. I've learned obstacles are more easily negotiated with support and that becoming our own agent of change is not as elusive as it may often seem.

It's all in the way you look at it, what you focus on, and doing what you can to control the situation. Knowing the past is helpful to understand the present, but it's not always helpful for making changes. I will work with you to identify what you would like to see happen, and how to get as close to that result as possible.
