If you find yourself needing assistance with life's challenges, friend issues, family issues, future and career questions, or just want someone to talk to, I am here to assist. If I don't have the answer, we will find it together. Life has many ups and downs and problems to solve. You can learn from your mistakes and missteps along the way. None of us has an owners manual to determine what direction one must go or what life we must lead. You write your own as you go along.

Its okay to have fun once in awhile
