I’ve got the tools you can learn

Even if you're feeling at a loss right now, you are motivated to make changes in your life.  This is where I come in.  I’d like to help you reach your goals by providing a different, fresh perspective.  With the combination of my life experience and formal training, I can equip you with tools and techniques to safely sort through some of your emotions, and help you to find new ways to cope with life, relating to where you are at in a personal way to help you get unstuck.
