Directions
On Mequon Road in Germantown, one mile east of the intersection of I-41/45 and Mequon Road, 10 minutes north of Milwaukee. From Highway 43, take exit 87 and proceed through Mequon on Mequon Road into Germantown, which is approximately 7 miles. Stonewood Drive is on the left in a cul de sac, second building on the left. Counseling services are located in the back of the building.
In marriage counseling, I define marriage based on Genesis 2:24, and the roles and duties of husbands and wives based on Ephesians 5:21-33.
In counseling women, I refer to Proverbs 31.
When talking about parenting skills, I look at Bible verses about discipline.
I highlight God’s forgiveness in healing any kind of abuse (physical, sexual, domestic violence).
When helping clients with anxiety, we look at Bible verses about anxiety (do not worry about anything and prayer, etc.).
When addressing depression issues, we talk about hope using God’s promises.
