"Life is simple, it's just not easy." ~ Anonymous

People often tell me "the thought of going to counseling was scary, but I feel so much better since I did".    


IN PERSON COUNSELING
Services available for individuals, couples, and families, lgbt friendly.  These days life seems more stressful.  So when problems or issues arise they often lead to conflicts and unhappiness.  I help you focus on working toward realistic solutions to problems.  My office hours are Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday from 10:00 am to 6:00 pm.  Other appointment times are available by request.  I also offer mobile counseling (at your home or office) on an as needed basis.

HYPNOTHERAPY
You can create and achieve positive life changes through hypnosis.  People are often concerned that they "cannot be hypnotized".  The process I use is very simple and does not require any particular skill on your part.  All you need to do is sit in a recliner and relax physically while your mind focuses on guided imagery.  Most people are familiar with using hypnosis to help them stop smoking, or for weight loss, but hypnotherapy can be very helpful for many other personal problems or unwanted behaviors.  Athletes too can use hypnosis to help increase mental focus and reduce anxiety.  Hypnosis is most effective when people are motivated to change. Multiple sessions may be required for optimal results.

PROFESSIONAL COACHING
Often times people feel like their life is stuck or in a rut.  They really don’t feel they need therapy but wish they had someone to help them get unstuck.  This is where coaching can really help.  Coaching can be a great alternative when you are looking to discover new ways to think outside the box, or help you reassess goals, change priorities, or identify unfulfilled dreams, make a career change or alter the course of your life.  My approach is simple, focusing on the future and working together, we help you develop a plan of action with specific steps designed to help reach your goals.  Coaching sessions are geared to help you achieve and recognize success and find ways to overcome obstacles.  Sessions typically take place over the course of several months, most often in weekly half-hour telephone sessions. 


E-THERAPY Non-traditional form of therapy using email exchange to help you address and resolve minor issues in your life.  Available to you 24/7 and from the convenience of your own computer.  For more information please email me.

SPORTS COUNSELING Supporting the mental and emotional needs of athletes to help accomplish goals and increase personal performance.  Sports therapy can help athletes identify and overcome mental and psychological issues which often contribute to anxiety and under performance.


THERAPY GARDENING
Let me help you design and develop a special place for inner peace, stress reduction and relaxation right in your own yard.  Studies show that gardening provides not only physical benefits but mental and emotional benefits.  A therapy garden need not take up much room. It is simply a place in your yard, porch, or lanai where the types of flowers, herbs, and other plants have special meaning or particular appeal and makes the space feel special.
