from your start page no-one has any idea at all what this is about. I thought you are some kind of psycho doctor.
I would not say 'go back and start all over'. Sounds quite negative, as if nothing so far was worth anything. I'd recommend you say something like: Stopping and taking account of current position, taking time to adjust the direction that one goes....
I cannot see well, what "feel safe, secure and on top of life." has much to do with your wesite building/design abilities. Well, I agree that this is good fpr your clients, but like that is sounds like some religious/psycological stuff.

Your employment history needs dates on the first level so that one gets a nice overview.

lt looks like this layout is made for 800x 600. I's not nice that people with higher resolution still get only such a tiny window where they have to scroll like mad and don't get as much overview as they are used to. make you site at least to the bottom open. You can't even get one visual including discription in the window. Bad.

Make 'contact' section on top level (not hidden under 'about') Put your address and email form under contact where it belongs, and put ypur personal stuff under 'about'

I would put the 'portfolio' above the 'CV' section. An nice portfolio with great visuals says more to start with than a list of employment and education. A portfolia can instanly impress.

What is 'JAM (external link)'? It should be clear what that's supposed to be. Website about your child? I would not just put it into the main nav without there being a context so that people know what this link is supposed to be.

I feel that the breadcrumbs clash a bit with the shadow at the top.
Maybe you don't need them as your site structure is really simple and each page has got a headline.

I find the images above the navigation a tiny bit boring, especially the 'resume' and portfolio' ones. Either better pictures or maybe get rid of them.

Porfilio: for websites it would be better to have a nice overview with images straight away rather than having to click on each item, click out again, click the next one.... Just like you have it in the print section. THere you get an overview straight away. And then you can have a more link for each of your wensites with project description and link to the site.

to sum up my thought: 'Homepage': I would make it clear here what the site is about and who you are/what you so. Then the next item I would do the portfolio. This is what I would be interested in next - to see the stuff after I know who you are and hwat you do. Then I'd have the CV section. and then 'contact' and 'about'. And make sure that people with larger screns don't get frustrated with your small content window.
