  • FAQ's

    1.  Can counseling really help?

    It really can.  I can help you explore your relationship patterns and what works in relationships.  Then you can discover how to find the relationship you really want. 

    3.  Does counseling always work?

    I wish it did.  But, I can't guarantee that.  I can say, I'll do my very best, to help you.     

    4.  How long are your sessions?

    My sessions are usually 50 minutes.  At times, shorter or longer sessions may be needed.   

    5.  How often do we meet?

    We usually meet once a week.  If you're going through a really tough time, sometimes, we need more frequent sessions.  As things get better, sometimes, we meet less often.

    6.  How long does counseling usually last?

    If things are going well, and you just need a little help to get through a rough time, counseling can be pretty brief.  If you're struggling with some tougher issues and you want to get to a much better place, it might mean more sessions.  It's completely up to you.
