I prefer to work with adults and children that are motivated to improve their relationships with family, friends, and others. I also work on issues of grief and loss. One area where I specialize, is working with parents who have experienced the loss of a child.
I work with children of all ages, as well as parents, in order to improve the quality of family relationships. In working with children, I may use my dog in session. Dorie is often in my office, and she is always excited to meet new people!
I am a Christian, and I am comfortable addressing issues pertaining to your personal religious beliefs.
