Sorry this pro can’t do your job, but we know other pros who can.
Introduction: Are you trying to change something central in your life? If so, the place to begin is by cultivating a sense of purpose. What is truly important in your life? Are you doing what is important? Or are you simply doing what is convenient? Are you a parent who is having difficulty disciplining your children? If so, one answer is to learn how to parent in an authoritative (not authoritarian) way. Authoritative parents are loving and nurturing, but also have high standards for their children. Don't be afraid to discipline your child -- but there are ways to do it with love and firmness Are you and your partner experiencing conflict in your relationship? Are you angry with each other? Arguing a lot without resolution? Are you finding that it is difficulty to be intimate with each other? Is so, I can teach you how to manage conflict more effectively. Conflict -- you may be surprised to learn -- is not necessarily a bad thing. It is not conflict that is bad -- it is the way conflict is handled. I can teach to communicate in ways that will help you solve problems between you and develop a stronger, more intimate relationship. Many people who have had experience with therapy sometimes complain that their therapist "didn't do anything for me" or that the therapist "wanted me to figure out the solution to the problem". This will not happen with me. Although I work hard to help my clients identify and clarify their problems, when the problem becomes clear, I offer clear and sensitive guidance that will help to solve the problem directly. It sometimes takes time to develop new skills. If a client is willing to work hard to solve a problem, I will be there to support and guide them every step of the way. I work hard to earn the trust of my clients.

I have worked with Michael for a couple of years. He is very responsive, and readily arranges time to talk, whether in person, or by phone or Skype. He has helped me learn a lot about myself and new, more productive ways of addressing conflict.

Mike completely changed our lives. We were struggling to understand and meet the needs of our eldest child, who had numerous educational and social difficulties. Mike gently, and with wonderful warmth and humor, helped us to understand how to balance her needs with our own, how to provide her with the scaffolding she needed to learn and thrive, and how paying attention to our own needs made us better parents. I would wholeheartedly recommend Mike to anyone looking for help with parenting or relationships.

I have been working with Mike for several years. Originally my intention was to help with specific goals. it has developed into a much richer relationship. We cover the gamut of personal and professional subjects We speak on the phone which makes it very convenient. Mike is a great active listener. I always feel that he understands where my had is at. I always feel more positive after our talk. There are times where he pushes you to get to a deeper level of understanding. He is successful at this despite the one dimensionality of the phone.
