Dana Edwards

Clinical Intern

Hello, my name is Dana Edwards, and I am a native of Houston. I grew up on the Southeast side of Houston, where I graduated from Charles H. Milby High School and entered the military shortly after. After leaving the Army. I came back to Houston and started a career in the logistics field where I worked for over 20yrs. After retiring in 2015, I went into business for myself, I own and operate a small delivery company. I am married, and I have 4 children and 4 grandchildren. I am an avid reader, and I love helping people.

I decided to return to school in 2008 as an older non-traditional student. I graduated from the University of Houston (cum laude) in 2012 with a degree in Communications and a minor in Sociology.

I am pursuing a Clinical Mental Healthcare Counseling degree at Houston Christian University, with anticipated graduation in May 2024. I plan to use this degree to help my fellow veterans with PTSD and volunteer at my church with some of the free counseling services they offer to members and the community at large.

I am thankful for the opportunity Counseling Connections has given me to continue my education through practicum and internship.
