I have had the pleasure of spending my life living, working, and mentoring in multi-cultural environments in the US, Europe, Africa, and Asia . My counseling experience expands 40 years and includes: marriage reconciliation; Women’s Boundaries groups; Divorce Care Recovery groups; Grief Care Groups; Interpersonal relationships; working with Teens; and working with parents with special needs children. I received my Bachelors and Masters of Art degree from Dallas Baptist University. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor and have completed 50 hours of Trauma training and 40 hours of Certified First Responder Counselor Training certificate programs. My approach to counseling is a combination of Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT), Solution Focused, and proven Biblical principles. I am a relational person. In my experience, the challenges in our relationships are results of shame, fear, wounds, trauma, unrealistic expectations, or any combination of these. Depending on how long you have operated in this manner and how eager you are wanting change, this will determine your progress. Once movement toward wholeness begins, new opportunities for authentic and transparent relating will emerge. I enjoy working with people and seeing them discover their gifts, and passions.
