Personal biography
A dedicated professional with over 20 years of experience in counseling, pastoral care, and community leadership, combining advanced academic credentials with a genuine passion for helping others through life's challenges. As Managing Director of Healing Hearts Counseling Services, I bring a unique multidisciplinary approach that integrates professional counseling expertise with pastoral wisdom and extensive international experience.
My career spans diverse fields including meteorology, climate science, and ministry, providing me with exceptional analytical skills, crisis management experience, and deep cultural sensitivity developed through work across the Caribbean, United States, Europe, Asia, and South America. This broad international exposure, coupled with specialized training in counseling and ministry, enables me to connect with individuals from diverse backgrounds and provide culturally competent care.
With a Master of Ministry in Counselling and over two decades as an Associate Pastor, I have provided guidance, support, and mentorship to countless individuals and families navigating grief, relationship challenges, life transitions, and personal crises. My role as a licensed Marriage Officer since 2010 has further deepened my understanding of relationship dynamics and family systems, making me particularly effective in couples counseling and family therapy.
My commitment to continuous professional development is demonstrated through extensive postgraduate training, including recent completion of a Post Graduate Program in Data Science and Business Analytics, which enhances my ability to utilize evidence-based practices and outcome measurement in counseling services. This combination of traditional pastoral care, modern counseling techniques, and analytical rigor ensures clients receive comprehensive, effective support tailored to their unique needs.
As both a practitioner and leader in the counseling field, I am passionate about expanding access to mental health services and breaking down barriers that prevent individuals from seeking help during their most vulnerable moments. Through Healing Hearts Counseling Services, I am committed to providing compassionate, professional support that honors each person's dignity while facilitating genuine healing and personal growth.
