Expertise

Working through the My Way to OUR WAY method, I offer engaged & married couples help with issues regarding love, conflict resolution, anger management, blended families (married with children), parental issues and sibling rivalry.

When in conflict, you might wonder:

  • Why does he/she DO THAT?!
  • I just understand him/her.
  • I can't get them to consistently start/stop!
  • Why is he/she so upset?
  • I'm in a lose-lose situation.

If you're stuck, it's because you THINK you have run out of opportunities. I can help you find more!!



Experience

Experience:

Highly experienced in the area of conflict, I believe that families can take full responsibility for solving their own problems, without the need for a long-term third party. I lead an association of counselors who I train so that they can train families on this method (within 5 sessions) and this has made a major difference for many families!

Education/Credentials:
Registered Counselor #RC00059845
M.S. in Management & B.A. in Communications
Formal Education in: Learning, Mediation and Coaching
