Cody is a graduate of Texas A&M University, where he was a proud member of the Corps of Cadets and Aggie football team, having the honor of being a 12th Man. After fifteen years in business and commercial real estate, Cody transitioned to pursue graduate work in both theology and counseling at Dallas Theological Seminary.

His greatest joy is being invited into the sacred ground of the story(s) of his clients’ lives to journey alongside them, having the honor and privilege to bear witness to the foundational places of pain that await further truth, freedom and transformation. Cody understands this work to be for all of us, himself included. It takes courage. It takes commitment. It takes ownership and responsibility. This path to purposeful living is the passion he lives for.

Individual self discipline, work and growth are critical to the process. However, Cody understands that we are all, not only harmed, but ultimately healed… in relationship. And there is no other way. It is how we are built. The counseling relationship can offer us a space where, based on our experience of love and trust, and the sense of freedom it brings, we can begin the hard work of practicing vulnerability, self regulation and empowerment leading to necessary and lasting change.

Cody and his wife Cindy have navigated the adventures of life together for 27 years. They have four children, ages 17-23. They are both Aggies, love travel and adventure, working out and being active, sports and all things outdoors… hunting, fishing, hiking, camping, snowboarding, scuba diving, just to name a few favorite activities that make our souls smile!
