I specialize in patient readiness, education and plan development.  By creating a clearly defined strategy, success is more likely to be achieved.  I take the time to truly get to know you.  I will help identify weakness, so that we may build a strong foundation for your success.   

 Pre-surgery we will identify your inner strengths and your support system.  We will identify obstacles which may try to hold you back and develop a means to overcome them. You and I will build a uniquely tailored plan based on your distinct individuality to enable long term success of this life changing event.   

After your surgery, you may have feelings of anxiety, fear, and hopelessness.  I am available for post op counseling sessions to alleviate these feelings and support you on your path to success.  Being able to freely discuss what your are feeling will help you be more successful.  Bariatric support groups are also available where you can share your journey with others who are on the same path. 

 Regardless of how strong we may sometimes think we are … life can prove to be difficult, stressful and challenging! 

There are times in your life  when you are not sure what direction to take. Times when you may just want to talk freely and openly with someone you can trust.  Someone who can help you through difficult times and provide guidance.

I offer family and individual counseling to assist you back to the path towards a more full and enriched life
