Some of George's Specialties
Marriage & Couples Counseling
Some couples need minor adjustments to get back on their feet and some need a major overhaul to save their relationship, marriage, or family. Some couples come to counseling to prevent problems from occurring in the future and some come to solve current problems or heal from past relationship wounds.
Pre-Marital Counseling
Chances are that if you are considering getting married you feel like your relationship is already really wonderful but that you also want to make sure to prepare well and give your marriage the best chance possible for outstanding success. Premarital counseling is one excellent way to help couples prepare for marriage by helping to ensure that you and your partner have a healthy, strong, understanding of each other, have developed useful skills and techniques to assist with your marriage, and have identified and developed strategies for dealing with weaknesses in your relationship.
Sexual Abuse
Modern statistics reported and studied for years tell us that even within this room one out of every three females will have been the victim of sexual abuse and one out of every seven men will have been victims of sexual abuse.
These statistics have held strong for years, but lets assume for the sake of comfort that these are a bit over stated; lets cut the statistics in half. One in every six females and one in every seven men are victims of sexual assault. This is still completely unacceptable and if this were a medical issue, we would call it an epidemic.
