..then when you know better, do better." - Maya Angelou I think everyone can benefit from counseling. Whether it's learning coping mechanisms or refreshing your communication and relationship skills, having a non-biased, non-judgemental person to talk with gives you the opportunity to learn new skills and examine the issues you're facing. I have over 24 years of counseling experience working with individuals as well as couples and families. I use a solution-focused approach as well as CBT (change your thinking and you will change your behaviors). I specialize in facilitating conflict resolution as well as working with couples on relationship issues. I offer premarital counseling as well. I have extensive experience working with ex-spouses on co-parenting and have worked with children for 26 years. I've been certified in advanced family mediation and have experience in mediating child custody and divorce cases.
