I also enjoy working with couples and families toward better communication and relational health.

It’s time to replace unhealthy self-defeating thoughts with healthy, empowering ways to turn the page & rewrite your story to "A Lifestyle of PEACE". Anxiety has ruined relationships, robbed you of sleep, joy, an appetite, & triggers isolation, depression, mindless-time-wasting-game/movie-bingeing and other self-defeating addictions. Anxiety is the absence of peace & often associated with loss, the fear of loss, trauma, and/or feeling out-of-control in getting your desired goals & outcomes, or preventing future loss of things, opportunities & people. I've helped those who want to maximize peace & reduce anxiety. Email me.

Let's face it, life can feel really dark at times. Everyone struggles with unwanted thoughts and feelings that seem to plague them.

Life is inevitably painful, and none of us make it through without incurring some wounds along the way. Some wounds are fresh, reflective of present life circumstances – a recent loss, strained relationship, a multitude of stress and worries. Other wounds are old and have been carried a long time, rooted in past experiences and impacting us today through ongoing patterns of behavior and ways of relating to self and others. Left unattended, these wounds (new or old) may lead to a number of distressing symptoms and much suffering. Like physical wounds, emotional wounds need to be seen and acknowledged, cleaned and dressed to heal.
