BiographyAfter stints in restaurant management, manufacturing and sales, I found my life's calling in the mental health business. I began doing therapy in 1978 in the state of West Virginia as a graduate student, obtaining my first full-time position as a therapist in 1980. Working for a family service agency gave me an incredible opportunity to practice my new profession with troubled youth and their families. I quickly worked my way up to become a Treatment Team Coordinator, and later a Clinical Supervisor and Manager of the agency. I did individual, family and group therapy in rural and urban settings, and in clients' homes, and helped previously institutionalized foster children thrive in their new homes and communities. And I was in private practice in West Virginia, as a Licensed Professional Counselor.In 1987, I moved to the Bluegrass area of Kentucky, where I still reside. I have worked for the Bluegrass Board Of Mental Health, Inc. for many years, where I have held numerous positions, such as Outpatient Therapist, Clinical Supervisor, Program Director and Director of Regional Children's Services. I helped envision and develop the Bluegrass Impact program, design and manage after school treatment programs, and spearhead innovative interventions for mentally ill adults. Workshop Presentation TopicsThroughout my career I have taught numerous workshops and trained many therapists. I have been a speaker at conferences and seminars. And I have supervised men and women working to gain licensure as family therapists. In addition, I have consulted and coached various organizations, helping them to improve their management systems and create healthier work environments.
