There are 3 things that I have learned on my own journey. One is that we can't change other people, we can only change ourselves. Second, that everybody has issues, grief, disappointment, illness,hurt, confusion, failures, and all kinds of challenges to overcome. Third is that we can learn, change,and grow no matter what the situation. I offer competent & compassionate counseling for those who seek a more satisfying life.
