If you are looking for someone who takes time to listen and truly hear what you are saying, then I am the person for you. The time we spend together is yours and you decide how we spend that time. You tell me what we are working on and what you are willing and able to manage. Then I use my skills and knowledge to assist you in whatever why is needed and appropriate. You can make the changes you want and I can help you along the way!
I can help by listening. I am often told that I am easy to talk to. People say that they share more than they ever have before and how much relief they feel after unloading stressful situations that are often kept to one’s self. Getting the "skeletons out of the closet" or bringing the ugly of life into the light can be extremely impactful.
I enjoy helping people in every way I am able. I would like to be the trusted neutral person in your life that you can talk to about anything. I can be your confidant, the person you bounce things off of, your best listener, your advocate, and/or the person who helps you see as many perspectives as possible. I am here for you!
