Education, Fellowship & Training
I am an Ordained Christian Minister and received my certification in 1997.
I am a Certified Life Coach.
I am also trained as an Emergency Domestic Violence Hotline Counselor and have 5 years of experience in this specialty.
My approach in Spiritual Counseling is a delicate one.
I…
understand that some of my clients are coming to me wounded, confused, some feeling hopeless and weary, perhaps wanting to give up.
The Word of God and guidance of the Holy Spirit is the foundation of my counsel.
I will walk alongside my clients and uphold them in prayer. My desire and goal is to see them walking in the liberty and freedom that God has ordained for them.
My clients can expect to be respected and listened to.
I will quickly discern where they stand concerning the Bible, the church, etc. and carefully proceed, understanding that everyone is in a different place of understanding and development of their faith. Whether my potential clients are seasoned believers, young believers or not believers at all,
each client can expect to experience a change for the better.
Pertaining to clients desiring Life Coaching, I will assist in setting achievable goals and help develop a realistic strategy to achieve them.
They will feel validated and cared for to the best of my ability.
I have been a believer since I was about 12 years old. I have beautiful memories of being visited by the Holy Spirit as young as 5.
I also know what it’s like to stray away from God, what choices I made that got me there and the pain and suffering that straying caused.
I grew up in a home where my parents fought almost constantly as my Father was an alcoholic.
Though he received a miraculous deliverance when I was 12, there was much struggling and great hurdles to overcome as a family due to the emotional damage of our environment.
I know what it is and what it takes to be made whole and UNCURSED!

Ordination: I achieved a Ministers Ordination in 1997 and have served full time in the Ministry since then.
Languages Spoken: I am proficient in the English language and possess excellent communication skills.
Personal Interest: I have been writing poetry and songs throughout my entire life. Upon my conversion experience (1972) I realized that God had given me this gift.
I sing and play guitar and love all types of Christian music and some secular music as long as the lyrics don’t compromise my ethics.
Another interest is that I am honestly intrigued by the treasures that can be found in God’s Word. I spend a good amount of time digging for those treasures and love sharing what I discover.
Bible Quotes: One of my favorite Bible quotes is Jeremiah 29:11.
For I know the plans I have for you says the Lord. Plans to prosper you and not to harm you. Plans to give you hope and a future.
(I refer to this often in counseling)
Another is Romans 8:28
And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the Called according to His purpose.
(I often share this as well. In a very modern translation that reads more like this:
God makes all things in our life to cooperate with each other for those who long for Him.
In a gentle way I try to get people to fall in love with Jesus…To long for Him…
