I graduated from University of Houston Graduate School of Social Work in 1992. I discovered Pia Mellody's work on codependence and since my initial training in 1999 with her,I have frequently spoken publicly on her model of codependence and love addiction for the Meadows Institute. I have conductedempowerment groups, love addiction recovery groups and relationship workshops—all of which focus on healing various degrees of childhood trauma underlying adult dysfunction. I am committed to utilizing this groundbreaking work to assist people who are either in recovery or who just want to enhance the quality of their lives.
I also trained extensively with Terry Real beginning in 2001, and use his invaluable model in my work with couples.
