As a California Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, the most meticulous therapy expertise will be utilized during your counseling sessions. I offer a problem solving Systemic approach to therapy including an understanding of your goals for treatment and working together to solve these problems in a focused, planned way. The treatment will look at the system in which you and your challenge exists including family, work, religion, society, etc., and seek to understand how these factors affect your situation. Potentially, this new understanding may lead the way to greater maturity and happiness as an individual, couple, or family.
As CEO and Founder of the Center for Enriching Relationships, Inc. (2002) and the Welch Family Therapy Institute (2022), a certified sex therapist, a veteran university professor, an ordained minister, all combined create an atmosphere by which Christian principles may be integrated during your therapeutic experience.
Recent published book includes: The Responsive Marriage (Finding the Path Out of Reactivity). Also, published author in children, adolescence, couple related books, magazines, publications, the Welch Responsive Temperament Assessment (www.welchtherapyinstitute.com), and training and experience in EMDR and CBT (research-based treatments for trauma).
