Counseling in the Cleveland and Westlake, Ohio Area

Individual Psychotherapy, Infertility, and Couple/Relationship Counseling

Counseling is designed to help you begin a process of change whether it is something inside you that you want to understand better or a way of being in your relationship(s) or life that you want to transform. Counseling is a dynamic process that requires a commitment from both the client and the therapist. I believe that this fit is critical to the success of any therapy outcome.
 I encourage prospective clients to call for a more detailed explanation of services.
