Counseling Services

Everyone  agrees that separation and divorce is a difficult and trying time for all family members.  Fortunately there has been quite a lot of research in the field of psychology over the past 30 years on the topic of divorce that has yielded much information and insight into the effects of divorce on families. Research has focused especially on children and teenagers.  The good news is that there are many ways to prevent unnecessary trauma and help all family members cope more effectively with the effects of separation and divorce.

What I Offer

Individual Therapy
While not everyone needs therapy most people can benefit from it from time to time.  The old notion that therapy needs to take a long time is just not so nowadays. Some clients need to hear themselves speak out loud in order to help resolve their issues while others need some objective, impartial reflective insight that I can offer.  Still others benefit from my years of counseling experience and information targeted to help with their particular problems. I offer all of these to my clients and tailor my therapeutic approach to each person’s specific needs.

I prefer working with teens and adults and have compiled a list of the types of services I specialize in below.  I do invite you to contact me with all of your questions.

Depression and/or Anxiety (problems with mood)
Relationship and Intimacy
Self-Esteem
Stress Management
Communication
Parenting and Coparenting
Life Transitions
Substance Abuse
Conflict Resolution
Men’s Issues
Work and Career Problems

Couples Counseling
Couples usually have difficulties with communication, conflict and problems of intimacy.  I find that, as a male therapist, I bring a slightly different perspective to my work with couples and have been told by clients that they find my approach refreshing and creative.  If you have tried couples counseling with others and have not been completely satisfied I would urge you to contact me to discuss how my approach might be helpful for your relationship.
Hypnotherapy
Relaxing, pleasurable and surprised are three words most used by clients to describe their first experience of hypnosis. More importantly, these clients discover hypnosis to be a very effective tool in harnessing their mind for constructive purposes and are often amazed at how powerful this deep focused awareness can be. Hypnotherapy has been very successful in assisting individuals attain positive changes in many areas of their life. I have compiled a list of the most common and traditional issues that hypnosis is used for, but of course there are innumerable ways this powerful, time-honored and safe technique can be applied. I enjoy answering questions about hypnosis and hypnotherapy and would invite you to call me if you have questions or would like more information.

Drug Free Asthma and Allergy Treatment
If you suffer from allergies or asthma (or both) then you know just how debilitating these conditions can be. Modern research into allergies and asthma, as well as other chronic bronchial conditions, has determined that the underlying cause for both is chronic hyperventilation. Fortunately the symptoms of both can be reduced, even eliminated, by learning some simple breathing exercises and incorporating certain lifestyle adjustments, both of which address the chronic over-breathing that upsets the correct balance of CO2 in the lungs.

My approach uses a combination of hypnosis, corrective breathing exercises and lifestyle changes to teach clients how to resolve these conditions. Though not a quick fix, when conscientiously applied over time, most clients see their asthma and allergies diminish or even completely resolve. Anyone who suffers from either one or both of these conditions owes it to him or herself to contact me to discuss how my approach can be of help to you or someone you know.  Drug-free asthma and allergies treatment is possible.
