Professional History:
After many years of experience in the therapeutic field working with children and adolescence at Centers for Youth and Families in the state of Arkansas, I decided to move to Texas to further my education in counseling and to become licensed as a professional counselor. Prior to my move to Texas, I graduated with a B.A. in psychology from Philander Smith College. While supporting a family of my own, my wife of fifteen years and three boys, I saw the need to return to school and earned an M.A. in Counseling at Prairie View A&M University of Texas and became certified as a Licensed Professional Counselor(LPC). Since establishing my career in Texas I’ve worked as a Mentor Coordinator where I’ve matched over 4,000 children with qualified mentors in the Turn Around Agenda program founded by Dr. Tony Evans at Oak Cliff Bible Fellowship over a five-year term. I’ve worked at Hickory Trail Hospital in Desoto, TX as a lead therapist. I am licensed by the Texas State Board of Social Worker Examiners and am qualified to counsel all ages including but not limited to individuals, couples, families, and/or groups. Currently, I’m pursuing my Doctorates in the Arts of Human Studies. My experience includes work as a private practitioner and as a hospital-based therapist. I have enjoyed the privilege of helping clients achieve solutions for a wide range of personal and mental health issues including depression, anxiety, anger, grief, addictions, physical and s*xual abuse, relationship issues, and diagnosis such as bipolar and ADHD to name a few.
Together with my wife, now of 21 years - who has always been my biggest support and greatest inspiration, has been working alongside me as my Executive Director for over 8 years at our own private practice. She also serves as a Life Coach, working closely with and supporting young women who struggle with self-esteem issues. She’s the Founder of “A Writer Heart” Journal Therapy Club. A women's support group. Her amazing capacity to support others has allowed her an opportunity to teach women across the nation about the power of journaling. And together we help people find the purpose beyond their pain. She is truly my soul-mate.
