“Getting into the field of psychology was a calling that I had to answer. Invariably I’ve been naturally inclined through wisdom to understand the behaviors and motivations of others while shining the light on deficiencies of understanding. My purpose is to aid others in knowing that there is hope for a better way of life while helping them see that they matter and they are not alone. It is vital that people know that they are capable of receiving direction to living the life of their dreams.”
