I am a direct, no-nonsense professional who has devoted his 40+ year career to helping people improve their lives. I work with adults (individual/couples) who are motivated to change. I work with children and teens within the structure of their family to resolve communication and behavioral difficulties. I have extensive experience working with adoptive and step families. If you are frustrated trying to connect with someone you love, yet continually experience getting stuck, outside intervention can help. What is seen as an emotional impasse to a client, is an opportunity for growth within an effective therapy.
My major goal is to help clients move from what is often the lowest point in their lives toward a path of recovery and personal strength. Everyone has to come to terms with parts of him- or herself that remain hidden to them, yet are obvious to others. My job is to hold up an empathetic mirror that will promote greater self-awareness and growth.
I am aware of how difficult it is to face the challenge of change in one's life; I resisted doing so for my first 35 years. I have sat in the client's chair and understand how daunting the process of therapy can be. I have learned that I can't lead someone somewhere I haven't been.
