When working with children and adolescents, family therapy is often a part of the treatment plan since a child's or adolescent's behavior impacts a family and vice versa.

I believe in using a mix of practical assessment skills, creativity and humor with a genuine commitment to marriage and families.

My heart is to help couples and parents once again experience grace to see their loved ones the way God does.
