Deciding on counseling for your relationship takes courage. Yet, living in conflict and pain only causes more pain and anguish and confusion as to what to do. In my session I provide an emotionally safe space, to share and explore the dynamic, the wants, needs and all the variables that both of you need to communicate. I'm very neutral and non-bias, I commit myself to supporting you both. As a mediator in addition to my counseling, it is my skill to remain fair and impartial. Let's see how I can help you get the clarity and fulfillment in your relationship. In my own experience, when relationships are not working, nothing else is.

The one and only purpose was to exploit the community for profit without providing the level of care deserved. Feel Better Therapy began from the inspiration to provide quality mental health care to the poorest of communities and treating the clients of this community the same way a rich patient would be treated in a clinic treating affluent clients.
