Having earned a degree in sociology/social work she began a career in the field of child abuse where that driving force exploded into a passion that has been her life’s mission ever since. With a determination to improve communication, empathy, and family dynamics, Brenda has provided services to thousands of children and parents which continues to humble her and strengthen her resolve in the human spirit. She specializes in parent education, child abuse prevention, infant/adolescent development, and pregnancy related issues.
