My strengths are in family counseling, single women counseling needs, premarital counseling.
My calendar is in service from Thursday at 9am through Sunday at 9pm. The other days are for family and friends to be ministered to as well as preparing to do my best for you.
My principles are strictly from the King James Bible. No matter what Bible you study I can work with you. Christian faith is what I follow, the teachings of Jesus Christ. I am non-denominational in theory. Full Gospel in teachings. Looking forward to seeing you strengthen and succeed in your mental, emotional, and spiritual health…daily.

Do you agree that counseling is not fully Christian if a counselor’s faith shapes their posture but not their methods?
Yes
Do you agree that the deepest personal help a person needs cannot be fully received apart from faith in Christ, even through counseling?
No
Why?
This belief in the word of God offering the most permanent outcome of the issues of the individual or child. It's a promise of God. It takes more work at times, but it can be an instant or miraculous event as well. Accessing the practices of the medical profession will be a great support even and a way to know when their services are peeked and the operation of the Holy Spirit can provide those not available with the medical profession.
Do you agree that Scripture speaks authoritatively to the deepest roots of human problems?
Yes
Do you agree that it is not appropriate to support or affirm a client’s chosen course of action when it conflicts with Scripture, even in the name of autonomy?
Yes
Do you agree that people do not possess all the internal resources needed for truth and healing apart from God, regardless of insight, support, or time?
No
Why?
People actually do possess the resources when they are lead to find and learn how to operate in these practices of human behavior and habits, they will see a change. The Bible principles are practices which can develop permanent outcomes or at least gradual or perpetual resolutions which the individual can build upon to make permanent.
