I am continuing to provide counseling either in-person or by phone for established clients who have attended at least one in-person session. Masks are required. Happy Holidays and best wishes for the new year!
Covid-19 Update 3/22/2020
As of now I am still seeing clients in-person at the office and am continuing with stringent disinfecting procedures and ensuring that very few people enter the office. I do have video and phone counseling available for anyone who feels more comfortable utilizing telehealth options. Again, I ask that anyone who has been sick within the past 2 weeks, or has been exposed to anyone sick, not come to the office and move to telehealth counseling. Also, children are no longer allowed to sit in the waiting room. Thank you for your understanding and as always I remain committed to supporting you.

On Wednesday, September 26th from 11:30 – 12:30 I’ll be at Johns Creek High School to talk about the number one thing that can contribute to your child’s inner and outer success.
Introducing Long-Distance Counseling
I am pleased to announce that in order to provide more flexibility for my clients, I have added telephonic counseling as an available service. An initial in-person evaluation is required, and this method of counseling may or may not be appropriate depending upon the particular issues you would like to address. Please contact me for more information.
Learning How to Suffer Smarter
Psychiatrist Carl Jung said, “Neurosis is always a substitute for legitimate suffering.” He was describing the process by which we develop dysfunctional behaviors as a way to avoid emotional pain, yet seem to wind up in far more torment and confusion than when we originally started. Instead of solving one problem we often simply add another. The true problem is one of unrealistic expectations; that a life well-lived can somehow be accomplished without difficulty or discomfort.
