I have over 31 years in full-time Christian ministry including over a decade of experience in full-time Christian biblical counseling/professional therapy. Twenty years of those thirty-one years were served in executive administrative leadership with Prison Fellowship Ministries. As an ordained minister and also a licensed marriage and family therapist having served as a Pastor of Family Ministries, I understand the needs of the local church and community. I hope you will consider allowing me and the Center for Enriching Relationships to serve you and the people of your congregation and or business.
I believe that God wants everyone to experience an abundant life full of meaning, purpose and joy overflowing (John 10:10).
