Welcome
Thank you for your interest in our counseling services.
What you should know about counseling, my mission, and being an independent therapist.
Lots of people have difficulty adjusting to the challenges of daily life. It's not unusual to feel anxious or uneasy about work, relationships or the pressures in the world. Counseling is a place where you can go to talk out their problems and to help process events. You can get help in recognizing strengths, resiliencies and growth areas. You will be empowered to achieve your goals through a strong therapeutic alliance. The process of counseling may be challenging at times but it can also lead to a very positive outcome. This can be a "turning point" in one's life; therefore, my motto is: "Find Your Turning Point and Move Forward".
I am an independent sole proprietor, in a central location in Alton. I have brought my specialty, commitment and resources to my practice in order to help enrich the lives of my clients and to tailor my practice to meet the needs of the community. I am sharing my space with Mark Murray, LPC, BCB, who co owns his CORE Services, INC., in St. Louis, MO. Mark provides bio and neurofeedback at this office for clients who wish not to drive across the river. For more on bio and neurofeedback go to www.coreservices.org.
