I am a life-long resident of Beaumont with over a decade of clinical experience in effective mental health and substance abuse counseling.  I am a graduate of West Brook High School and I hold a Bachelor of Science degree in Psychology, a Master of Education degree in Counseling and Development, and a Post-Baccaulaureate in Primary Education - all from Lamar University.  I am a consummate professional who is regularly sought out by peers and clients for insight and guidance.  When not helping others, I enjoy spending time with my husband, children, family, friends, dogs, and my beloved bearded dragon, Floki.  I also enjoy crafting, traveling, and cycling.  I am an active member of my Church Parish, with a special focus on helping with youth-related activities and programs.  I am passionate about my work and through my Christian faith treat each and every client with respect, dignity, compassion, and love.
