“I have devoted my career and my life to helping others. My family has been touched by addiction, mental illness and suicide. My life fell apart when my parents divorced when I was 11 years old., I raised myself from that time while coping with my mentally ill mother. When I was a mixed up young adult, I learned that I could change my behavior and my life by what I thought.
For a time I was a high school drop out. When I changed my mind about who I was and who I wanted to be, I finished school and worked my way through college and graduate school.”
