Building upon almost 20 years of pastoral counseling to couples and individuals, I pursued additional study culminating in a Master of Science in Social Work from the Kent School at the University of Louisville. Since receiving that degree, I have gained valuable experience as a therapist in community mental health programs, in private therapy with residents of local long term care facilities, and as an administrator at Franciscan Healthcare Center. My experience with the elderly and their families provides a unique perspective into the dynamics of family relationships.

I am a licensed psychologist whose clinical expertise includes over 30 years of experience working with individuals, couples and clergy. I have a master's degree in Counseling Psychology from Trinity Evangelical Divinity School and a doctoral degree in Clinical Psychology from Spalding University.
