 I received my BS in Education from The University of Akron in Akron, Ohio. After a career of seventeen years as a teacher in Houston and in Phoenix, I changed careers and earned my Masters Degree in Counseling from the University of Phoenix in Phoenix, Arizona. My passion is helping people and I devote my life to counseling adults in general mental health issues especially in the areas of substance abuse and grief. I have been a counselor for ten years - working mainly with adults with such issues as depression, anxiety, low self-esteem, anger management, and relationship issues. I also acquired quite a lot of experience working within the areas of Substance Abuse treatment and Grief Counseling. I have worked with both adolescents and adults with substance and drug abuse treatment needs.
I have spent the last five years as a counselor and Clinical Supervisor at an agency that specializes in substance and drug abuse treatment as well as General Mental Health issues. Also, I have earned certification as a Level I Bereavement Specialist - thus I have experience with grief and loss issues.
I am a National Certifed Counselor as well as a Licensed Professional Counselor in the state of Arizona, Counseling License Verification. I volunteer with a local fire department by going out on calls to help with crisis situations, so my experience in grief issues and drug abuse treatment comes in handy in my volunteer work. I am available for e-mail online counseling sessions in the evenings after 6:30 PM and on some weekends. Please refer to my calendar for further information about my dates and hours for any online counseling sessions. |
