My path dates back over five decades when I joined this human race here on Earth.  Years of living as a part of a complex family with both fortune and challenge and then formal education where I earned the following; a Bachelors Degree in Psychology, then a Master of Science in Community Counseling provided a foundation for understanding life.  In my professional development and career of twenty years I’ve earned a certification as a Certified Alcohol & Drug Counselor II (CADCII), and most recently a license as a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC). In my professional development and career of twenty seven years and counting I’ve held certifications as a CADCII (Certified Alcohol and Drug Counselor Level 2-not current), been trained in various subjects such as the Gottman Method (Relationship Counseling Model), Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing (EMDR-Level 1), and other disciplines. I have also held a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) license for several years.   

After assisting people in the public sector helping them change their challenging lives for two decades, I’ve now been working exclusively in private practice since 2018 and continue helping individuals pursue growth and change.
