Welcome to my website.

• Are you a teen who knows you are a good kid yet can't understand why your parents don't trust you or overreact the way they do?
• Are you a parent whose adolescent child, who used to be so good, has become unmanageable and everything you've tried hasn't helped?
• Are you a step-parent whose step-child continues to disrespect you despite your best efforts to be fair and loving?
• Are you feeling so depressed or anxious that you don't want to get out of bed?
• Are you suffering from agoraphobia and fear a panic attack every time you leave your home?

...then seeking counseling with a professional makes a lot of sense.

When dealing with serious life issues you can, believe it or not, "enjoy the process." This means the process of living as well as the process of counseling...feeling good about the changes you are making in your life.

The information offered in these links is meant to provide guidelines rather than solutions to specific life problems. Sometimes all that is necessary to reduce stress or to work through a problem is to think about it in a different way...and this is what I hope to accomplish.

Of course, not everything can be resolved by reading alone, or something you read may make you decide that you would like to speak to a counselor. If you would like to contact me directly you can use the link to the left or call my office at any time. I would be happy to provide you with a telephone or office consultation at no charge.

Needless to say, you are more than welcome to schedule an office visit. Please click on the directions link to see if my office is close enough for you to make the trip. For those who are confined to their home, I can schedule home visits. If you do not live close by and are having difficulty knowing how to find an appropriate counselor, I would be happy to help.

Once again... welcome!
