I have 4 decades of experience and training in a variety of methods. I do what is needed depending on the client and the specific circumstances.
1. Currently I have worked helping adult children and their parents establish more constructive and respectful relationships.
Author of ¨Keep Your Parents Home: Keep Your Job and Life: Save Your Fortune and Sanity". It is 1/2 professional advice on how to do it and 1/2 personal experience from when I kept mine at home. I used my professional experience and knowledge combined with the mistakes and knowing what works I learned from doing this myself. keepyourparentshome.com
Last year I met a man whose wife died after 4 years of his being her nurse. I gave him my book and he said he wished he'd had it earlier because it would have been so helpful to him and his wife in those four years. He is a professional writer and is helping me rewrite the book to include couples.
I like working with is families who are dealing with these issues. I have shown that I can work with an open mind, knowing that there are a variety of needs and helping families find the best with respect for all, especially important are boundaries, but also helping people avoid the current hype. I have had many successes at this.
2. As a writer I have a special affinity and ability working with people whose life circumstances and issues have hindered their abilities to create writing, painting and a variety of creative activities.
3. I have developed a system for working with bulimia and overeating.
4. I am very good with people who have experienced childhood abuse, my current patient is an 85 year old woman who came to me 3 years ago to resolve her childhood abuse. I know that this work can be done at any age.
5. I have expertise with adult adoptees and birth parents helping them resolve those issues including reunions, if wanted
6. As an Interfaith Minister who has trained in spirirtual direction and dream work, I help people understand their spiritual lives and how to use this to improve their issues.
After 4 decades of experience and additional training the only people I have not been successful with are active alcoholics and addicts. I have worked well with people who have been sober for several decades in putting their lives where they want to be.

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions.
Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.
