I bring to the chat room 30 years of personal growth, extensive training, life experience, empathy, and intuition. I can help you improve all your relationships, especially the one with yourself.
I found my current husband on match.com in 2002. In the process of spending a year on-line, I learned how to write a profile that attracted the people I wanted to meet and repel the ones I didn't. I can help you, too.
You will find me easy to talk with, a fast typist, non-judgmental, GBLT and alternative-lifestyle friendly. I'm also practical and direct--no beating around the bush!
I can give you language to use in any situation: questions to ask, how to assert yourself, when to bring in a mediator or facilitator. I can show you why your language isn't getting through to the person you are talking to and how to change it to communicate more effectively.
Contact me if you have challenges in any of the following areas:
Relationships and dating (especially for the over-50 crowd)
Divorce
Blended families
Parenting teenagers
Building self-esteem (I wrote a self-esteem curriculum for teenagers)
Adoption issues (I adopted a 10-year old who is now 29 and a 7-1/2 year old who is now 21)
