"A journey of a thousand miles must begin with a single step."--Lao-Tsu. I truly believe every day is a new beginning. Each day brings opportunity to improve or create change in your life and relationships with others no matter how hopeless things seem. Relationships can be complicated, confusing, sometimes even hurtful. I help you sort it out as you move toward healthier relationships with your children, partner, spouse, co-worker, anyone. The focus is on solutions and life change. Everyday is a new beginning.
