It can be difficult to ask for help; we may feel weak, hopeless, or disappointed. Asking for help requires strength and courage and may be a journey through both darkness and light.

Please feel free to reach out in an anxious time. I encourage a direct and focused path to help people learn and apply lifelong skills to address learning issues, attention issues and mood issues.
