My purpose in presenting this personal disclosure statement to you is to acquaint you with both my background and theoretical approach to the coaching process.  I converted my  Licensed Professional Counselor and board supervisor status  in the State of Texas to inactive. This means I am no longer working as a licensed clincian, and am instead working as a professional coach. I am also a Certified Sexologist and certified Applied Clinicial Nutritionist.  

My vitae is available for download at the bottom of this page.

I believe in a wellness perspective within the coaching process, rather than a medical model. If you need a diagnosis, I will refer you out to a trusted colleague as I cannot provide a diagnostic impression with an inactive license.

Many of the tools that we may explore in that process can include distress tolerance skills; mindfulness techniques; the exploration of feelings, cognitions, and behaviors; and expressive techniques such as journaling, art, and music.
