Paul holds professional designations of Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, Certified Sex Addiction Therapist, and Supervisor. Paul obtained his M.S. degree from Fuller Theological Seminary where he attended both the school of psychology and the school of theology. Paul works exclusively in the workshop and intensive model. He facilitates workshops in Michigan, Florida, and throughout North America.  His own 12-Step recovery began in 1977. He currently has over 31 years of relapse free addiction recovery. This personal experience along with training with Sharon Wegscheider Cruse, Patrick Carnes, and Pia Mellody make him uniquely qualified to design and facilitate workshops and intensives to help the addict, the partner, and the coupleship.

Ginnie holds professional designations of Licensed Professional Counselor, Certified Sex Addiction Therapist, and Supervisor. Ginnie graduated from Western Michigan University with a BA in Education. She then returned to Western and earned her MA in counseling psychology. Ginnie developed a passion for helping the spouses or partners of addicts early in her career while working with Sharon Wegscheider Cruse at Onsite and later at The Betty Ford Center.  She often refers to spouses of addicts as “the neglected majority”.  She knows that partners cannot simply standby and wait for the addict to recover.  They need their own support.  After years of training with some of the world’s leading authorities on addiction as a family disease, Ginnie has become recognized herself as an expert in helping partners or spouses.

Ginnie and Paul bring together a combination of personal experience and clinical expertise that enable them to help individuals and couples who sometimes came to view themselves as hopeless.

Ginnie and Paul recently coauthored a chapter in the book Mending a Shattered Heart edited by Stefanie Carnes that many couples will find helpful.
