Counseling is a process in which a counselor and client work together in a professional relationship to resolve concerns or issues that the client is experiencing and chooses to bring to sessions.

I work closely with clients to assist them in increasing their positive thoughts/images in effort to promote efficiency in their overall thinking, coping and behavioral patterns.
