Again we never impose our values or beliefs on anyone unless they inquire and would like to learn more about our faith.

  • Impulse Control Problems

    Do you have a gambling problem? Do you steal things from merchants when you can afford to buy what you stole? Do you sometimes feel like you are out of control? Just as emotional problems can result in eating problems or addictions, they can also cause poor impulse control. When you give in to these impulses you get an emotional rush but you also put yourself and your family in jeopardy. You may violate the law or community moral standards and this will eventually cause you to hurt your family and have legal problems. Now is the time to seek help and our professional staff is trained in behavioral therapies that will help you to acquire new and more healthy behaviors as well as to regain self-respect and self-worth in your life.

  • Sexual Addictions

    Emotional problems have many various expressions and sex is just one of them. Pornography, hyper-sexuality, extra-marital affairs, and excessive masturbation are avenues that people find to deal with stress and poor self-esteem. Many individuals are introduced to sex before they are emotionally mature enough to deal with it. As a result, emotional problems develop and a person’s primary means to feel good about themselves or cope with stress is through sexual expression. We can help men and women to overcome sexual addictions in counseling and psychotherapy. You can learn how to relate to the opposite sex in a healthy manner, deal with self-issues in a productive and more fulfilling way, and discover more effective methods of dealing with emotional stress.

Come and break free of the power that food may have over your life.

We can assist you in regaining a sense of excitement in your relationship and guide you in overcoming obstacles to your sexual fulfillment.

  • Anger Management

    You have a right to your feelings. It is the strength of the emotional reaction that hurts you and what you do with that feeling that hurts others.
