Working with you to make today
and every day "a better day!"

Are your children
misbehaving? Are you having marriage or relationship
problems? Are you stressed or depressed? Have you
considered getting family, individual or couples counseling?
People come to counseling because they want positive changes in
their lives. We want to be your partners in
change.
Yes, I understand it is
scary to come to someone you do not know well to discuss your
problems, worries and fears. You may be a little
tense for the first meeting. This is
normal. But, I want to tell you that nearly everyone
says even after the first session that they were glad they took this
first step toward improving their lives.
Some people have
some interesting ideas about what to expect when they come
to counseling, so I want to dispel some of the myths. There is
no couch. Your therapist is not going to "analyze",
judge or label you. Your therapist is not going to
spend sessions sitting and listening to every detail of your
upbringing-nodding their head and saying, "yes, I
see." Your therapist is not going to sit and referee one
long argument in couples counseling to decide who is
right. Your therapist cannot and will not "make " you do
anything.
What is counseling, and what
happens during counseling? You sit and talk with
your therapist about your problems and
concerns. You are respected as a unique
individual. You will learn new things. There is a great deal of training
and teaching that occur during counseling. Your therapist
will give you clear suggestions on ways you can change your thinking
or behavior, that if you follow them, will make immediate
positive changes in your life. Your therapist will be caring,
respectful and direct.
If you contact us for
counseling in an area that we do not specialize in, we will refer
you to another therapist. For a list of issues that we provide
counseling for, please go to the counseling page.
Do you feel like
you are stuck in mud? Are you frustrated about not
reaching your goals
and dreams? Is your career or family
life falling short of your expectations? Coaching may be for
you!
Coaching works with highly
functioning-goal oriented people. A coach can help
you get
unstuck; get over, under and through the fear and other
obstacles that are holding you back from ultimate success in your
life. Please go to our coaching page to find out if coaching
is just what you need to reach your dreams.
