Building a Relationship that Lasts
Take your relationship to the next levelWho Am I?
I have been providing insight and direction to individuals, couples, family members, and peers for over 30 years in the areas of personal growth and professional development. I believe that relationships are the most critical priority in life and that people are our most precious resource. I was fortunate to learn about relationship styles in a way that easily translates to better communication, smooth conflict resolution, and increased satisfaction in the lives of people at all stages of their relationships. I use my skills as a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and a Certified Professional Coach to assist my clients in building strong and lasting relationships as well as in repairing those relationships that have suffered setbacks.
I will help you to understand people and interact with them in a way that builds trust, safety, shared purpose, and lasting connection. I invite you to walk with me on a path that is aimed at achieving your personal happiness.
