<h1>How can I help you?</h1>
<p>
My goal is to help you address your issues that you feel are standing in the way of your leading a more fulfilling life. Below you will find excerpts from my Blog "Steps to Serenity - Tips from a Therapist,"
which offers a collection of thoughts I have gained from helping patients improve their lives for over 25 years.
Is there a particular topic you would like to see addressed? I invite you to read the entries and share your thoughts in the comments, or <a href="contact.php">contact me</a> directly for a getting to know each other session.

Thus is the challenge of learning healthy boundaries in relationship with others.
