"Gardens are places of struggle, surprise, and deep mystery-places where we are often reduced to silence and awe." ~ Norman Wirzba

Life is like gardening.  Seeds are sown.  They sprout, blossom, and (in a good year) produce fruit.  Gardening can be richly rewarding.  Yet it has painful parts, too:  pests come to attack tender plants, or to eat ripening fruit.  Drought and heat weaken plants.  And even without environmental challenges, proper care for plants includes weeding, fertilizing, and pruning.

Counseling is about growth, pruning, healing, and more growth--and hopefully blossoming and fruitfulness.
Welcome to my corner of the worldwide web and to my private practice of Christian counseling for marriages, children, and individuals.

"The many great gardens of the world, of literature and poetry, of painting and music, of religion and architecture, all make the point as clear as possible:  The soul cannot thrive in the absence of a garden. "  ~Thomas Moore
