Baby Blessings & Baptisms
Many parents choose to celebrate their child’s birth with a ceremony in a non-traditional setting. I specialize in ceremonies on the beach, in your home, a beautiful garden or other unique settings. I offer both a Baby Blessing Ceremony and Baptism Ceremony. Some parents choose to combine both while others prefer to use the Baby Blessing Ceremony only since it is more spiritual and less religious. As a non-denominational Minister, I take pride in meeting your needs. Ceremonies are offered for all age children and sometimes for their parents, too!
Pre-Marital Counseling
I am available for pre-marital counseling prior to your wedding. The number of sessions differs from couple-to-couple; however, I recommend at least two sessions. These sessions will help prepare you for your upcoming marriage. Pre-marital counseling is not required however, you may find it helpful to better understand yourselves and to resolve any issues that you may have which may come between you as wife and husband. I will also help you learn communication skills and conflict resolution.
When I had a private counseling practice in Pennsylvania, one of my specialties was pre-marital and marital counseling. I received my Master’s Degree in Social Work from Temple University.
Life Coaching
I offer experienced, safe and supportive personal coaching. I help you get back on track to a peaceful and joyous place in life. You will also learn skills to help keep yourself on track in the future. I can also help you with Hypnosis to resolve many issues like low self-esteem, various fears, anxiety and other emotional issues. Sessions are in person or by telephone( 941-922-5908)
