I have expertise working with clients/families dealing with bipolar, schizophrenia, anxiety, OCD, depression, adjustment disorders, anger, grief/loss, and family and medical issues. Personal info: Married 33 years, 4 children, 9 grandchildren. I enjoy cycling, fishing and visiting family. I am an active, healthy cancer survivor. I am retired, and my most recent full-time position; a medical case manager. I have a very flexible open schedule. I am a genuine- easy-going, non-judgmental person. I believe everyone has value and worth.

First session

First session is an introduction process -- by gathering information about you --so I can understand who you are and how I can help.

Strengths

I believe my 30+ years of experience is probably my most valuable asset. I also feel that my nonjudgmental viewpoint is very helpful and positive. And I believe that people certainly can use help navigating their problems-- but I think the best solutions in life are developed by people for themselves.

Ideal clients

Due to my wide range of experience I enjoy working with men , women and couples I feel very comfortable working with clients who are dealing with anxiety , depression, trauma, couple / relationship problems and patient dealing with serious medical issues.

Walt, listens well. I threw a lot of history and background at him and he listened and seemed to understand my background and some issues I have. Ran out of time but looking forward to Walt helping me with the issues I am facing.
