Who am I? I've been married for 20+ years. My wife and I have a teenage son. I'm personable, friendly and like to laugh. I talk and ask questions. I won't sit silently and wait for you to talk. I won't say, "How does that make you feel?" I've been told that I'm a "normal guy." Who are you? Someone who wants to feel better? Or wants your teenager to talk to someone? Or wants to be happier and more secure in your committed relationship? Let's keep it simple and work together to find solutions. To learn more about me, check out my website: www.rivercitycounseling.com
My education provides me with the necessary "book knowledge," which I couple with over twenty years experience as a therapist and 25 years in the "helping professions," to develop a unique counseling experience. I do "what works," while being cautious to work in a professional manner, utilizing mainstream counseling techniques.
I am a trained facilitator of Parent Project, a comprehensive parenting class for parents of children ages 11-17. I utilize this training to provide parents with a structure which helps them to parent more effectively and to improve their family life. Feel free to contact me at steve@rivercitycounseling.com
