Lawrence Whiston

Digital Storytelling

Many years working in the field of Ministry outreach, helping people who struggle with addictions, family relationship problems, Gang affiliations, homelessness, and a wide variety of other self-defeating behaviors. With our current expansion goals, there arose a need for Counselor Licensing. For this reason I am pursuing a BA degree in Applied Behavioral Science. Once achieved, I will be pursuing an MA in Mediation and Conflict resolution.

Background of management experiences through several recovery and discipleship homes across Spokane, WA. and Gallup, NM. Current desire to become licensed by the state to Counsel: Marriage & Family, Drug & Alcohol Addiction, Life Coaching, and Interventions. There is a tremendous need not only in these areas, but everywhere a person looks
