First, I’ve spent my entire adult life seeking and distilling the best information I can find in how laymen can deal with anxiety, depression, and other emotional and mental issues. This comes out of my own experiences with depression, which I’ve shared. Second, I love to teach. That’s my training.

During the pandemic, many families with kids have had to use distance learning tools. That’s been less than ideal in some cases, but it’s the hand we’ve been dealt. You could read books, listen to lectures, and otherwise be an information sponge. My sense is that we’re overwhelmed with information, and need a means to sift through all the information out there and absorb what’s actually helpful. Furthermore, in order for information to be of any use, it has to be applicable. That’s what a self-paced course can do. I’d say, too, that no one wants to be “talked at.” My courses are crazy interactive, and should engage you on many levels. My Master’s degree is in education (sounds like I’m trying to establish my credibility; a diploma won’t do that on its own. I’m just sayin’.) Philosophically, I never want to tell a student anything that I can’t lead them to discover for themselves. 

In a broad sense, perhaps. I prefer to think of it as “personal growth.”

 I’ve alluded to that already. It’s not a matter of a simple “want to.” You have to want it, and badly, but that wanting has to translate into measurable results. In that sense, any of my courses is just a vehicle to get you where you want to be. It’s not going to do anything for you if you keep it at arm’s length and don’t honestly engage. And it’s work. I won’t sugarcoat that. 

Remember what I said about “personal growth” and “self-help”? You should know that I come at this from a faith-based perspective. There’s a lot you can do for yourself, and a lot others can do for you to help you grow. At the core, I don’t believe that lasting transformation can take place apart from God at work in your life on a personal level. The principles I’ll teach you have universal applicability, but ultimately I’m convinced that God is the only One Who can change lives. You need to know that before onboarding with me.
