Discovering a vital resource is a big step to a better life. The choice for personal development begins with finding a professional counselor or coach with whom you have rapport and can build trust.
The benefits of counseling and coaching are living a more serene and powerful life, improved relationships, finances, lifestyle conditions and an overall feeling of well-being.
Ifar is a safe place to discover and build on the best of what you have to offer. I work with clients to identify and achieve their goals. Ifar challenges old patterns by using trusted and effective methods. I employ diverse approaches to best suit individuals, teens, couples or families.
