Driven by a strong desire to better understand and help those around me, I added a Masters in Counseling from Concordia University to my Master of Divinity from The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary. As a fully Licensed Mental Health Counselor in the state of Florida, I have the privilege of working with a wide range of people from diverse walks of life who are facing a variety of difficult circumstances and challenges. Having been married for 30 years with three children, I am able to bring a wealth of life experiences and understanding into the counseling room when it comes to relationships, marriage, raising children, and other life matters. While I enjoy counseling in general, I find that I am most passionate about working with teenagers, young men, married couples, and those serving in various ministry roles. This passion has been fueled and strengthened over the years, as I have had the opportunity to work with various individuals and couples through the local church and the counseling office.
