Communication is Helping Ministry's Mission.

   Bring an end to arguments & anger .

   Learn what a men & women need to communicate effectively.                                              

I can design your counseling from a communication standpoint. Our process provides support and a way to experience intimacy.

Counseling is tailored to meet your individual needs. It is not my purpose to change your beliefs but to help you identify and share them with others.

Helping Ministry was founded in May 2001.
It is a member of The Association for the Integration of the Whole Person, (AIWP)
a non-profit organization (#95-3455451)

Relationhip counseling  is sometimes referred to as pastoral counseling. It is help with life's challenges respecting your particular religious beliefs while seeing you as a whole person. This is not mental health counseling (please see Life Transitions for mental health issues).

Fear is what keeps us apart which can result in pain and suffering. Love requires us to respect and trust one another.

I was born and raised on Long Island where I completed my undergraduate studies in philosophy at Stonybrook University (SUNY). I earned a masters degree in 1981 from Wright State in communication skills (Masters in personal counseling).  In 1989 my wife & I founded Life Transitions Inc., a group private practice after the State of Florida certified me as an Addictions Professional. Life Transitions provides chemical dependency and mental health counseling services.  I was ordained a relationship counselor by AIWP in 2001 which also established the non-profit  Helping Ministry of AIWP.

If you want to develop your relationships then you will find your experience at Helping Ministry rewarding. You may involve spouse, children, co-workers/managers, second marriage partners including the special challenge of bringing children together into a new household. My communication model was designed to help you overcome the fears that might be involved in the process.
