Favorite Verse/Quote

1 Peter 5:10- And the God of all grace, who called you to his eternal glory in Christ, after you have suffered a little while, will himself restore you and make you strong, firm and steadfast.

Genesis 16:13-  She gave this name to the Lord who spoke to her: “You are the God who sees me,” for she said, “I have now seen the One who sees me.”

Why UTF

As a therapist, I take great joy in watching transformation happen on an individual level. What an amazing opportunity I have had to sit with people in the deepest crisis moments of their life and guide them toward healing and restoration. As a professor, I do not take lightly that I am multiplying that impact by helping to shape the next generation of people helpers. It is with a great amount of humility and joy that I approach that task.
