We are celebrating a significant milestone in the career of AMCA Partner, Andrea Tristan. On Friday she walked across the stage at University of North Texas to be awarded her Master’s of Education Degree in Counseling.
Andrea has been actively practicing counseling for the past few years, specializing in work with teens & young adults. While working for a special non-profit organization focused on keeping students in school in the Dallas Independent School District, Education is Freedom; she did outstanding work with several hundred young students, keeping them motivated and focused on completing their education and going on to college in the midst of many life challenges that often lead to dropping out. Those she supervised had a high rate of staying in school and being first in their families to pursue higher education!
She will add a special competency to our offered services in family counseling, an area that is very important to achieving life/work balance and quality of life for families. The foundation of servant leadership is learning and practicing skills raising our emotional awareness and intelligence. We are so proud of Andrea as she expands her focus on families, parenting, teens, and personal wellness.
“What Ann does so beautifully is facilitate all our different styles to merge together as we create and struggle to reach our visions. The art in Ann’s involvement is the permanence of the change that results.”
