About Me

I have been a counselor in the North Dallas area for the past 30 years and am currently the Director of Counseling Services at Dallas Theological Seminary. I maintain my private practice on a limited scale, specializing in the reconciliation of marriages following an affair or addiction relapse. I have always sought to integrate godly principles with practical insights that come from the behavioral sciences within my own life, and believe it can be helpful for others as well. I also continue to stay involved in the Dallas community through speaking engagements and volunteer work. For four years I helped teach a monthly four-hour class for divorcing couples called “For Kids’ Sake,” which is a court-ordered class for all divorcing couples in Collin County.

This website is meant to be a place to organize and present those topics that I am thinking about on a daily basis. I would love to be a resource for those who share my interests, and hope to be a catalyst for professional dialogue.

    Hi Dr. Jagers,
    I really enjoyed your class last night. I introduced myself to you after class. I’m the lady that is in womens ministry and also an LCDC. I have been developing a prevention resource for sports teams over the past few years and would love for you to take a look at my web. http://www.texcansportsconsulting.com I also have a non-denominational faith based side to it as well, which may become a part of the Hockey Ministreys assocation.
    I would love to learn more from you on the topic you covered last night….
    My Dad was a paster, brother in law was a paster and so on…. (WAS) I will tell my story someday. I’m also in Alanon and have been seens I was 19….I have 27 years in recovery. I studied at The Center for the Study of Addiction in Texas Tech under Dr. Carl Anderson and then was accepted into the Hazelden Training program, where I graduated. I then worked on the streets in New Brunswick,Canada for a few years with the addictions/mentalhealth systems….with clients that have a dual diag….then back to Texas where I have been home with my son. And started developing my program. Now I’m ready to return to serving others again.

    Thanks for coming to Tampa! Dr. Jagers, I really enjoyed taking lunch with you on Saturday while you took part in Discover Dallas. Please thank the entire team as well. It was a privilege to have the entire DTS admissions team in Tampa. It shows how dedicated DTS is to the success of their students. I was impressed.

    P.S. Thanks as well on our discussion on 1 Peter 1:3- 7. I would encourage you to write up a devotional on the richness of the processing through the qualities mentioned. What a blessing!
