Welcome
Have you been...
- Experiencing trauma, painful memories, negative thinking or having difficulty moving forward in life?
- Having relationship problems, difficulty finding the right person, or difficulty letting people get close?
- Does it feel like your kids don't listen or follow directions?
- Do you feel unmotivated, stuck or blah?
I offer compassionate counseling to individuals, couples and families with a focus on solutions. I love helping my clients develop strong, positive relationship skills, overcome and change negative beliefs, and resolve painful past events that left them feeling anxious or depressed.
Resolving Trauma
Trauma may be the BIG things - accidents, crime, combat - or it may be smaller but equally debilitating things like growing up with an alcoholic parent, facing constant criticism, or feeling like you didn't fit in.
I use a powerful, proven technique called EMDR that allows people to resolve past wounds and feel a sense of freedom. EMDR works on
- phobias
- anxiety
- low self esteem
- childhood traumas
- relationship issues
- abuse
- thoughts that won't go away
- performance anxiety
- nightmares and more
To learn more and to see if EMDR is right for you please check out my EMDR page.
Relationships Not Working?
If you're...
- having difficulty getting over a past love
- trying to make a relationship work
- wanting out of your relationship
- or wondering if you are ever going to meet that special someone
...I offer a safe place to sort out confusion and gain clarity. Each person in a relationship plays a part in creating the problems. When you understand your part, you gain the power to make positive changes and create the relationship you truly want.
Just for Men
In addition to women and couples, I work with a lot of men on relationship issues. Men in our culture need a safe and non-judgmental place when they are:
- struggling to understand women
- having difficulty letting go of past relationships
- confused about what they want in relationships
- wondering how to make their relationships more fulfilling
Children and Families
It is not easy being a parent. When you are going through your own difficulties (at work, with money, in your relationships) it's even harder. It's like your kids pick up on what is happening. They may not even realize they are worried or needing more attention. Instead, they may just start having their own behavior problems.
For over ten years I have been working with children and families get their needs met in healthy, loving ways, turn around negative patterns and behaviors, and find relief.

Feeling Unmotivated or Stuck?
- Do you a procrastinate?
- Is it hard to follow through on plans or ideas?
- Do you beat yourself up when you don't get things done?
Life Coaching is a great way to get clear about what motivates you (and what doesn't). Coaching provides the tools you need to take small, easy first steps, create plans and goals that really work, and allow yourself the time, energy and support you need to follow-through and feel that wonderful sense of accomplishment.
I offer a twelve week program to delve into what you truly want to manifest in your life. By the end of the program you will have the tools, insights and action plan to use and to continue the process independently if you desire. I also integrate EMDR for those who want to get past self-limiting beliefs quickly and easily.
