"A journey of a thousand miles begins with just one step."

 - Confusius

Are you on a journey of self-discovery?  You have survived old hurts, traumas and relationships.  They don't have to define you in the present.  Overcome your past.  Plan for your future.  Engage in the "Becoming" of you.

Are you:

Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual or Questioning your Sexuality - My practice is GLBT affirming.  You can address the issues and concerns that relate to your life and sexuality without fear of rejection or coersion.  Your relationship is valid and significant even if it isn't endorsed or validated by law.  You can expect your relationship to receive the same respect and attention regardless if you are gay or straight.  I am proudly listed on the Phoenix PFLAG list of Gay-friendly counselors: http://www.pflagphoenix.org/community/counseling.html

Recently Divorced/Uncoupled - Divorce, betrayal and break-ups can be disorienting and cause anxiety, depression and disruption at work, school or at home.  If you are finding it hard to get up and out of the house or stay focused on your responsibilities, consider contacting a therapist.  Counseling after an infidelity, break-up or divorce can help you navigate the grief process that often occurs after such a trauma.

Seeking a Career or Changing Careers - Just starting college, entering the job market or changing careers?  Been laid off and lost your confidence and motivation?  Academic and career counseling can help you focus your efforts and eliminate unnecessary effort in planning your career strategy.  Personal counseling focused on depression and anxiety can help prevent overwhelming feelings that interfere with your ability to find and secure rewarding employment.  See more here.

Adapting to Retirement and Senior Living - The mature adult and senior populations experience a great deal of loss and requires adjustment that doesn't necessary match our expectations of retirement and leisure living.  Aging parents, loss of loved ones, declining health are all developmental hurdles each of us will experience as we get older.  Counseling can provide you with a new perspective that allows you to appreciate your life as it is and maneuver the pitfalls of senior living.

Counseling can help as you make meaning of your life, develop a new attitude or create goals regardless of your orientation, lifestyle or stage of life.

With me, you are free to be who you are -- to speak your truth -- without judgment.
