I work with youth ages 3-18 and adults, specializing in the preschool and elementary age group. My goal as a counselors to provide the type of attention, acceptance and unconditional positive regard that Fred Rogers described in his quote. "Whether we are a preschooler or a young teen, a graduating college senior or a retired person, we human beings all want to know that we are acceptable, that our being alive somehow makes a difference in the lives of others."

So many of us want and need validation. I have clients express relief when they hear they are not alone with how they feel or act. Some just want to be heard...to have someone truly listen.

If one is out of sync, it affects the rest. Everyone wants to be happy! I am prepared to help individuals find their own happy and healthy balance in life!
