Who’s in your “Quality Word”? This could be one of the most important questions you will ever answer!

WHAT DO YOU MEAN BY QUALITY WORLD?

Simply put, your quality world is any person, thing or belief you place into it that makes you happy and makes life worth living. One of the people you put into your quality world is your spouse or life partner and maintaining that person’s place in your World is essential to your well-being and would constitute a real crisis if something interferes with your relationship to that person.

HOW CAN I TELL IF SOMETHING’S WRONG IN MY QUALITY WORLD?

If you are unhappy and struggling, are depressed and feel out of balance, or perhaps are expressing any symptoms that distress you or feel not like you, then it is likely that something is not working in your Quality World. Would you like to put your life back in order? We have some helpful information.

Adolescents and Parents

Thanks so much for visiting and welcome! Do you find that parenting your adolescent is taking the joy out of parenting? Perhaps you feel unprepared for today’s demands that both you and your teen face. Parenting your adolescent is surely one of the great challenges you face as a parent.

You may be noticing all kinds of shifts and changes in the relationship you have with your teen. Many of these changes may be perplexing and even a little bit scary. Do you wonder where your teen’s behavior is headed? Perhaps you ask yourself, “Is my daughter more interested in her friends than in her family? Has our son basically stopped talking with us and what about his angry attitude these days?”

You have come to the right place. I can help you and your teen during this important time of transition. Family therapy, parent coaching, adolescent psychotherapy, and relationship building are all viable choices proven to be effective in helping teens and parents. Together we will decide which course is best for your family.

Control is now a very big issue as you and your young person both fight for it. Parenting skills that worked well when your teen was younger now may seem outmoded or even irrelevant. Are you searching for a better path through this maze? If you are, please read on.

Struggle-Free Living for Women

I am glad you are here. If you are struggling with your life rather than enjoying your life, you have come to the right place! Research shows that cultural trends encourage women to feel dissatisfaction and discontentment with themselves and their lives. No wonder life is hard! Wouldn’t it be nice to find a new way of living that felt easier, more comfortable and more in control? Wouldn’t it be nice to feel genuine confidence in your decisions and yourself? And how about being able to really enjoy yourself and feel proud of your accomplishments?

I specialize in helping you truly feel more comfortable, confident, and happy with yourself and your life. Your personal journey will include psychotherapy and counseling as a way to more deeply understand yourself and your emotions. If you have relationships concerns, couples or marriage therapy can be quite helpful.

Over time, being yourself will become much more interesting and more fun! Life was never meant to be a struggle, so why should it be one now? If this sounds intriguing, please read on.
