Life is full of many pleasures and many challenges. Often communication with those who mean the most to us: our spouse, children, parents, friends,or co-workers breaks down. Speaking with a professional in a neutral environment puts a logical spin on the situation, relaxes emotions and allows problem solving to occur. I work with individuals, couples, families, children and adolescents to lower the stress and increase communication; to come up with a plan and support the implementatiion and fine tuning to resolve these life challenges and to have the skills to better communicate and act with renewed insight and understanding.
Sometimes we are challenged with children who refuse to follow directions or are hyperactive or argumentative. Other times the problem may be substance abuse,anger, weight issues,problems with trust, grief, low self esteem, financial issues, or job or family pressures. You will find me interested, caring,and helpful.
My language skills include a fluency in Spanish and French as well as English. Having been a teacher and parent and therapist, I have a good understanding of relationships. When life challenges are causing anxiety and unhappiness, let's work together to write a new story of success and fulfillment.
