Couples counseling is
my specialty
If
you are feeling stuck,
frustrated, hopeless
in a relationship, I
may be able to help
you and your partner
come to a new place of
caring and love.
"I
believe the
help I
received from
Sky was
literally
life-saving.
In only a
couple of
sessions my
partner and I
were able to
establish a
basic
stability in
our marriage
that I believe
will be a
first step
towards a
foundation of
a long life
together
marked by
great
happiness."
I
work with individuals,
couples, parents and
families. Come in on
your own, or come in
all together. Let's
talk about what is
going on and see how
things can be going
better!
Areas of Practice
Couples, Parenting
Families,
Individuals
Style of Practice
I see acceptance
as the major part
of my ministry.
Acceptance of
others and of
one's self. I see
my job as helping
to lift people to
a higher place of
love and
acceptance. I am
most interested
helping clients
develop the inner
capacity and
outward skills of
effective and
respectful
negotiating.
