How I Can Help
My Approach to Coaching & Counseling Change
Change is always a positive event in our life, no matter how it initially appears to us. It is our responsibility to release what no longer serves us, understand how we will be changed by the process, and to emerge stronger, wiser and more flexible to all of life’s challenges.
I explore how to work with change as a personal growth process in your life.
My Treatment Focus
- Creating an understanding of the process for effectively managing change.
- Assistance in understanding and utilizing the three phases of change.
- Assistance in expanding our personal identification and expression of SELF to improve the energy needed for change.
- Assistance in overcoming obstacles that keep us from accepting change.

- Individual Problems & Concerns
- Couples Experiencing Difficulties
