“I don’t feel like myself.”
“I don’t know why I am not happy.”
“I can’t seem to get it together since Katrina.”
“I am having problems with my spouse.”

People want to feel
understood, in control, and happy. I
enjoy working with people to help them feel in control of their lives, happy,
and productive. I believe in using
people’s strengths to help them through difficult times.
