WWW.LIVEBETTERLIVENOW.COM NBCC *Board Certified Counselor There is no denying that life is full of challenges - and that can be a good thing - helping us to grow and evolve as both individuals and as partners/families. But it's also true that at some point we all need the help and support of others. Sometimes a professional is the answer. Whether you're faced with a recent loss or big life change, struggling with conflict in a relationship, burdened by depression or stress, or just feeling lost - I'd like to help you.

In my practice - I address several issues, including Life Change Adjustment, Relationship Challenges, Addiction Recovery, Professional Burnout, Men's Issues, Anger Management, Grief & Loss, Post-Divorce Stress, Anxiety and Depression. I have extensive experience educating counselors on the use of current best practices - measurable quality and up-to-date treatment.
