I earned my Bachelor’s degree from Judson College (now Judson University) in Elgin, Illinois, and my Master’s degree in Social Work from the University of California, Berkeley in 1985.

​

Since then, I’ve had the privilege of serving Veterans and their families, as well as providing counseling for individuals and couples for over three decades.

​

My approach is caring, collaborative, and rooted in respect for each person’s story. I value the opportunity to help clients integrate their Christian faith or spiritual beliefs into their journey toward emotional and psychological well-being.
