Personal Counseling / Coaching
Depression, fear, and anxiety are some of the most common and uncomfortable emotions that we can experience at some point in our lives. Through counseling and treatment, we are able to help you recover motivation, perspective, and joy that you once had in your life.
Couples Counseling / Coaching
Relationships can be a challenge at times.
Starting a love relationship is one thing; maintaining and growing a relationship is another. We all have needs and expectations of how we want to be loved.
As a member of the Marriage Counseling Hall of Fame, Dr. Dan speaks from decades of experience.
Managing Anxiety
Millions of people (an estimated 15% of the population) suffer from devastating and constant anxiety that severely affects their lives, sometimes resulting in living in highly restricted ways.
Managing Depression
An estimated 30 to 50 million or more people suffer from depression in the United States. Depression has been called the nation’s most widespread and under-treated emotional problem. Some maintain that every person will suffer from some form of depression sometime in their life.
Career Coaching
Combining a Career Assessment with Coaching is helpful for individuals looking for career direction or career transition. Whenever we are in a transition period, we can be in a state of turmoil and in need of a new direction.
