I work with individuals, couples and families to alleviate misery and increase wellbeing. MISERY - Depression. Anxiety. Family conflict. Feeling hopeless and helpless, day after day. WELLBEING - Affirmation of one’s value and worth, talents and strengths. Embracing hope. Good health. Fulfilling relationships. Everyone experiences disappointment and pain. You, though, are able to live a full and meaningful life. Embrace hope, be persistent. You will experience joy and meaning in life: “Life’s good and I’m blessed.” These are my focus and my goals for you as your counselor.
I also work with people who want to experience meaning and satisfaction at work. High school students who are uncertain about their future. Young adults who feel stuck in a job that’s boring and lacks challenge. Adults who are considering a major switch. Together we will develop a pathway which you will move down with confidence, toward your desired future.
F. Scott Peck wrote "Life is difficult." I would welcome the opportunity to work with you as you build confidence and hope as you confront your challenges, whether it be a mood disorder, family relationships, life's transitions or career misery. Yes, it is possible to finish your day with the affirmation "Life's good."
