Services Offered

I work with clients from all cultures, religions, and socioeconomic backgrounds. I practice Christianity and although I do not use the counseling forum as an opportunity to impose my spiritual beliefs, I encourage clients to develop spiritually. For clients that request it, I specialize in Christian counseling. I approach the counseling process holistically by encouraging clients to consider how physical, intellectual, emotional, spiritual, and social health impact their psychological way of being. I assist clients in gaining insight, developing good health and self-care habits and correcting irrational thoughts and faulty relational patterns.

The goal of the counseling process is to foster greater insight and self-awareness about challenging issues. This is done in a supportive and safe environment. I endeavor to foster a partnership that produces greater insight and skill development. This will eventually produce greater health and individuation. It is essential that we both maintain the professional nature of the counseling relationship and limit social contact outside the counseling relationship. This is necessary in order to preserve the quality of the therapeutic relationship.

Process

I conduct a virtual consulting practice using Skype, Google Hangout, and/or FaceTime to provide face-to-face sessions, or if you prefer, we can also use the phone. All appointments are 45 minutes unless previously agreed upon. During the session I strive to gain a better understanding of the problems that led to the need to seek support and also work to help with finding solutions.

Time Commitments

Most clients attend counseling sessions weekly, but the frequency and duration is ultimately up to you. Most clients improve within a few months, but a few require a longer period to experience improvement. After the initial weekly sessions, clients eventually space the sessions further apart to either every other week or once a month.

Fees and Cancellation

I offer three levels of service. Level I is billed per session. Each session is $130 and lasts 45 minutes. Clients may also purchase 4-session or 7-session packages and gain significant discounts. Click here for options.

Next Steps

I am currently taking new clients. Please call or email me requesting services. We will have a short, free consultation via email or phone. If we decide to move forward with the counseling relationship, you will be asked to complete the intake forms and a client/counselor contract. The contract may be completed on this website and submitted prior to your first session.

Once you complete consent and inventory forms, you may schedule an appointment to discuss with me.
