I have a number of years providing personal and career counseling both individually and in groups. I like to help people distinguish between problems they can solve from those with which they have to adjust. I try to help people identify as many ways as possible to solve problems, but I do not select which alternative(s) would work best - they do. I also try to help clients set priorities by identifying which concerns need immediate attention (acute) versus which concerns are ongoing (chronic). I've worked with inner-city Detroit clients as well as those from suburbia. I have taught counseling courses at Oakland University, Shippensburg University, University of Detroit, and University of Phoenix. I have a Master's degree in Counseling from Wayne State University and a Ph.D degree in Counseling from the University of Michigan. My name is Peter Wolf and I look forward to meeting you!
