Marriage Counseling . . . Healing the Hurt
What's standing between you and happiness?
Individual counseling using cognitive therapy is a proven, effective way to help people move beyond personal problems to a more rewarding, satisfying life.
Marriage counseling and family therapy help people break out of old patterns to communicate and work together more effectively.
Individual Counseling . . . Taking Back Control
I am located near Stillwater, Minnesota. Whether you are here just to browse or to find a therapist, I’m glad you’re here.
I offer a wide range of services - everything from individual and couple counseling to pre-marriage “coaching”, from business coaching and life coaching to helping people overcome self-defeating habits or better performance through hypnosis.
I also provide consultation to small family businesses and leadership teams to help them work together and communicate more effectively.
