It is my goal to provide empathy and effective counseling so individuals can grow psychologically, spiritually, and relationally. My goal is to provide practical assistance so people can experience healing and wholeness in life. We each experience issues in life. It is important to use the most beneficial tools for each person. –Dr. Guman
