Has life become stressful and overwhelming? Are your family relationships being impacted? I believe this stress can wound the spirit and cause parents to be angry, children to be angry and act out and spouses to become resentful. I can help families and individuals communicate in ways that help to heal old wounds and restore a sense of hope. I work with your own internal strengths to support change and help you discover your unmet needs. I strongly believe in the power of self-exploration to create opportunities for positive life changes.
I use Play Therapy in my practice to engage younger clients in the therapeutic process. I believe that children experience life in many of the same ways as adults, however, unlike adults, children are not always capable of expressing their needs, thoughts & emotions clearly. The language of children is play.
I have extensive experience working with complex cases involving children and families, as well as working with children with special needs. My work with children and families, has lead me to developing a much needed group for men on how to be the father's they want to be.

A Man's Guide to Being a Father
(not currently offering, due to numbers) There is very little in the way of information readily available to men on how to make the transition into father hood. This fact was the starting place for the development of a course that would bring men together to talk about, learn about and experience their children in different ways. The men who take the risk/accept the challenge to be involved in this group will learn and grow as fathers in ways that will result in stronger and healthier families. There will be education, opportunities for sharing, encouragement and accountability.
