About
I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in the state of Texas, USA. This means that I am licensed by the state of Texas to practice professional counseling. My counseling practice primarily includes children, adolescents, families, and groups. I focus on personal growth, behavior modification, and relationship counseling. I also provide Pastoral Counseling to those requesting it. I have training and experience in this combination of counseling for over 8 years. I have an Associates Degree in Missions from Sunset International Bible Institute, a Bachelors of Art in Psychology from Lubbock Christian University, and a Masters of Education in Counselor Education from Texas Tech University Graduate School. I also receive consultation as needed. I have lived in France and New Zealand as a missionary. I began counseling at a community center on Ave. A in Lubbock, TX. This place provides services to a wide range of needs and populations. This is where I completed my practicum in professional counseling. I accept only clients who I believe have the capacity to resolve their own problems with my assistance. I believe that as people become more accepting of themselves, they are capable of finding peace and contentment in their lives. However, self-awareness and self-acceptance are goals that take time to achieve. Sometimes this may require months or even years. If counseling is successful, you should feel that you are able to face life’s challenges without my support or intervention. However, please be aware that neither I nor any counselor can guarantee that counseling will be successful. Your greatest asset in counseling will be you; the open, honest, real you. Although our sessions may be very intense emotionally and psychologically, it is important for you to realize that we have a professional relationship rather than a personal relationship. Our contact will be limited to the therapeutic time you have with me. Please do not invite me to social gath
