My name is Tamilene Black, and I am a Christian author, wife, mother, and military veteran. I am dedicated to cultivating and restoring healthy relationships and marriages between men and women. My goal is to encourage those waiting to find a mate, and to equip those who are already married with biblical tools to enhance their marriage. I believe in using a proactive approach, education, coaching tools, and life experiences when coaching couples. I earned my Master’s degree in counseling studies from Capella University and a Bachelor of Science degree in psychology from Upper Iowa University. I am also certified as a Christian marriage coach through Light University and The American Association of Christian Counselors. My passion is serving others and the needs of the local community.
