Dr. Swales’ passion and calling for the past 25 years has been helping people to strengthen, rebuild and heal themselves and their relationships.

She works with some clients who desire to strengthen their parenting skills. Some seek her help because their marriage has gotten off track or stagnant. She works with clients going through affairs and other stressors. Other clients just need support and guidance as they change careers or care for a chronically ill loved one. And finally, some people just need someone who will listen as they navigate a tough time. Dr. Swales loves helping people set goals for their lives and relationships and giving them the tools to help them get to a better place.

Her approach tends to be brief, goal-oriented, and solution-based. She has helped couples and individuals work through anxiety, trust issues, career changes, and challenges, grief and loss, chronic illness, forgiveness, adjusting to motherhood, discipline and parenting challenges, screen/video game dependence, establishing healthy boundaries, getting organized, dealing with infertility, communication skills, divorce, and extra marital affairs among other things.
