About Richard Silk
I love working with people and watching them succeed. There’s nothing more rewarding for me than seeing people turn a difficulty into positive and lasting growth. Since I’ve helped so many people do this, I know you don’t have to wait to experience the positive change you want.
No matter what your issues are, I can help you take life-transforming steps right now. Together, we will identify your issues, clarify your options, and determine the most effective new action you can take—and I will support you in making and sustaining the transformation.
You are one of a kind, so the challenges you face are unique. But decades of working closely with individuals and couples, kids and parents, business owners and professionals, as well as church and community groups have taught me the laws of human dynamics that affect us all. Let me help you apply this intelligence to your unique situation, and you will be amazed at the results.
I’ve gone from leading a sports team to national championships to coaching successful teams, I’ve evolved from classroom teacher into school principal, I’ve been a community organizer and a counselor for individuals. So I’ve seen first hand that everyone faces difficult challenges, and I’ve observed that positive change is always possible.
Let me help you uncover the hidden dynamics that are affecting your situation, so you can take the smartest, quickest steps toward a lasting transformation of your life. My goal is your well-being, across the board, in emotional, relational and practical terms.
How I Work
Together we will engage a process that will help you navigate your key life issues, whatever they are. Using my understanding of the human developmental process, I will help you discover the underlying dynamics in your situation. Then you can map out new directions for positive change—in your personal life, professional life, family life, or intimate life. Taking a positive, non-problematic point of view, welcoming each challenge as a creative opportunity, is the basis of growth. That comes first. Knowing the right questions to ask about your situation, knowing how to listen and understand the answers you get, then deciding how to take newly informed actions—these all come next.
I will help you gain clarity to decide on changes you want to make, and I will support you in making them. All that’s left then is to assess with you how to direct the good that flows into your life and work from making new choices that are based on feeling and intelligence.
