Career counseling assists people in finding the right career path for them. It includes discovering skills, honing in on specific interests and aptitudes, and researching meaningful ways for people to do the work that suits them best. If someone questions their career or work choices, a career counselor will administer tests, including inventories about personality, skills, and strengths. The therapist will then educate the client about career fields, industries, or companies that have jobs that align. They can then work with the person to develop specific skills for that job, such as effective communication, interpersonal skills, and time management.

**Tele-Health Available** I believe in the potential of people to heal and have the life that they deserve. It is normal for all of us to feel conflict, sadness, anger, or distress from time to time. It's when these feelings and behaviors start to negatively impact our lives that we may need extra support in sorting through what it all means. Counseling is not about me telling you what to do, b...

There are many approaches to psychotherapy. Some techniques focus solely on insight and history without targeting specific issues for change. Others aim to identify and attack behavioral concerns but do not pave the way for growth with empathy and compassion. In the former, patients feel soothed and understood but ultimately frustrated by a lack of change, not knowing how to break free of their...

Life is a marathon and I believe that it is all about endurance. Sometimes we have to get a little help along the way whether it be a change of shoes, re-uptake of protein or a water break. There is this idea that we are weak when we seek others to help us out, but I also know that in life we cannot always persevere without a helping hand. I look forward to being an option of that new running s...

We cannot get through life without difficult times. None of us can. Whether it's a family conflict, career predicament, or personal trauma we are going to experience them. And, yet, how we handle them can make all the difference in our future and the future of those we love. I have been doing psychotherapy for a long time, both with individuals and with couples, and hope I have developed an...
Ever since I can recall I've listened and supported others when they were struggling. I don't view people as "broken" or as something to be fixed, but I do believe we need each other. We each possess tremendous strength and courage and our lives are filled with infinite possibilities. But whether we like it or not, we also have emotional and physical distress. We can't avoid this, but we can...

Often, that perspective comes best from someone with the education, training, and experience who will take you beyond...
