I don’t know if anyone has ever told you this but . . . counselors have favorite clients.  I have favorite clients.  The truth is that you are one of my fabulous and favorite clients if you are:

• Resilient i.e. my client who keeps getting back up when you are knocked down;
• Interested in new ideas and open to new ways of seeing;
• Courageous – and by that I mean you are ready to face your fears;
• Willing to experiment with your life, try new things, and take new risks;
• Able and willing to adapt the things we talk about to make them fit for you and your situation (rather than simply dismiss what you hear);
• Involved in projects and work that benefits others;
• Value-oriented and recognize that your relationships with others and with me are valuable;
• Naturally collaborative i.e. you contribute to and focus on your opportunities and successes;
• Bright, full of light, and are easily excited about the possibilities for your life;
• Positive and naturally optimistic;
• Really clear and understand the 90 / 10 law.  (90% of my value to you will be outside of the time we spend together.)  You try the strategies that we discuss, you change them to suit your particular situations, and you report your feedback to me so that we can continue to tweak our work together;
• Enthusiastically telling other people that you know about my services and our work together.

If you aren’t my client right now but you found yourself on this list, feel free to call me when you need a counselor.  New fabulous and favorite clients are always welcome!

People come to therapy for lots of different reasons.  If you are considering working with me as your therapist, it’s likely that you fall into one of these categories:

• Perhaps you are a seeker . . . always looking for ways to stretch and grow . . . fine-tuning who you are along the way;
• You might be ready for a jump start for your creativity and intuition;
• You may be trying to untangle yourself from a really difficult situation or relationship;
• Life may be just a bit more complicated than you need it to be right now;
• Maybe you’re sick and tired of your life story;
• Perhaps, you are wanting someone to hold you accountable for the changes you are ready to make;
• Or, maybe you’re ready to create and live a new and brighter life story.

Regardless of your circumstances, if you are looking for someone to support you on your journey . . . and if you think I might be able to help, I hope you’ll call me.  We can talk a bit to see if we are a “good fit.”  If not, I’ll be happy to try to help you find someone other than me to accompany you on your way.

It’s here that I hope to begin to gather information and inspiration to help you on your journey.  I hope you’ll leave comments and suggestions to let me know what it is you would like to find here.
