Palm Beach, Boca Raton, Coral Springs Florida Counselor, Telephone Therapy.

My Counseling Services - Reconstructing Relationships:

Family Counseling:

I assist individuals to reconstruct their relationship, with each person doing some things differently, such that there can be peace and enjoyment, like never before.

Couples Counseling:

I assist each partner, in the relationship, to explore and identify goals, along with strategies to meet these goals. You will learn how to apply healthy tools, effective communication skills and techniques to use during disagreements, which will result in each partner feeling more love and satisfaction.

Individual Counseling:

I assist each person to set specific goals and together we will identify how to apply what actions to meet those goals. We are created not to be alone. Healthy relationships, with oneself and others, is needed by everyone. It is our birthright to be happy and to enjoy our relationships.

Child Counseling:

I assist the minor, or young adult, to be able to improve day to day functioning and provide a solid foundation in which to thrive and develop. The health, or lack thereof, of a child and parent relationship is a strong indicator of future abilities of that child to maintain adaptive relationships with others.

Divorce Counseling:

I assist couples to develop and maintain a cooperative co-parenting relationship, which their children must have to grow to become healthy adults. In divorce counseling, the hurtful cycle of behaviors is ceased and a new way of being, with respect and civility, is put in its place.

I assist couples to design specific Parenting Plans that involve parenting time, educational and health related issues, which need to be determined and decided upon. The focus of the child's best interest is always the priority. I teach the "Parent, Children and Divorce" class in Palm Beach County. In my private practice, I assist partners to design and update parenting plans, that are in their children's best interest.

Expert Witness Assessments and Court Testimony:

This is a service that I offer, especially in cases involving children. I will meet with my clients, gain the necessary information to be of assistance and testify in court as to how certain parental behaviors are, or may not be, in the children's best interest and why. I enjoy providing hypothetical testimony in court. I am well respected in this community and for nineteen years have taught the "Parent, Children and Divorce Class", which is one of the classes that requires mandatory attendance for those couples, with minor children, choosing to obtain a divorce.

Psychoeducation:

This is another service I offer my clients, in which their specific needs, such as parenting education, divorce education, recovering from infidelity, sexual, physical and emotional abuse, child neglect and abuse, conflict resolution skills, substance abuse intervention and anger management are some of the subject areas which I will respectfully provide to my clients and their family.

Mediation Attendance:

This may be necessary in order for me to assist the mediator, attorneys and the parties involved in areas and guidance regarding their children. I may need to offer and facilitate all involved to understand the psychological impact their decisions will have on children and to encourage all present to put the children's needs first.

Parental Coordination:

In high conflict divorce cases, I work with both parents to assist them to put their emotions aside and come to agreements that are in their children's best interest. I facilitate couples to creatively come to decisions as to how to co-parent their minor children.
