About

I have enjoyed spending my life living, working, and mentoring in multicultural environments in the US, Europe, Africa, and Asia. My counseling experience expands by 40 years. I received my bachelor’s and master of Arts degrees 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. In my experience, the challenges in our relationships result from shame, fear, wounds, trauma, unrealistic expectations, or any combination of these. How long you have operated in this manner and your eagerness to change will determine your progress. Once movement toward wholeness begins, new authentic and transparent relating opportunities will emerge. I enjoy working with people and seeing them discover their gifts and passions.
