CHILDREN & FAMILIES
Keeping a client-centered focus, I help children & families build skills to solve or cope with their current & future challenges. I have worked in schools and homes with children K-12 & their families for 15 years and as a counselor for over 11 years. I possess solid working knowledge of current issues facing youth & families and am versed in Special Education and Section 504 law, process, rights and requirements. I take great pride in being able to help parents and schools work together to foster healthy academic and social growth. As a father myself, I am familiar with the challenges unique to the public school systems at this time, but also to timeless human development struggles.
ASSISTING ADULTS
Counseling should assist on the journey toward self–understanding and healing with focus on understanding patterns of behavior, what purpose they serve and if one still desires to keep them. While sometimes it is helpful to discuss and process disturbing events from the past, feeling better and living healthier are possible without this. My goal is to assist people in setting and meeting their own goals, beginning where they are at.
