Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist

I did my graduate work at Liberty University, studying the process of working with human personality and relationships.

I spent three years studying personality--how we grow up, how we relate to our family and friends, and how we make important life choices. After graduation in 2011, I began my private practice in Imlay City Michigan.

I have been married to my childhood sweetheart for 45 years. We have five children together, ranging in ages from 24 to 40. Graduate school was a wonderfully enlightening experience, but I feel that my main qualification lies in the fact that my spouse and I have enjoyed a rich life experience together, raising our five children, watching them grow into remarkable young adults. This experience of parenting five unique individuals, helping them make choices about college, careers, and romance has given me an appreciation for just how hard life can be to navigate in this busy, complex and confusing culture in which we live.  In addition, we now have four beautiful grand-kids.

Much of my work in the therapy setting involves helping my clients to understand how their past woundings may be interfering with their current happiness and relationships. I have noticed that many clients have come to believe some very negative things about themselves as a result of some of the trauma that most all of us have experienced in our past. Helping clients understand the negative beliefs that they came to believe about themselves allows clients to gain understanding about how these messages might be interfering with their self-esteem, be causing them emotional pain, and perhaps causing dysfunction and pain in their current lives and relationships.
