Ellen Dean M.S., LPC-S, LMFT-S, CBC is a Licensed Professional Counselor and Supervisor, a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and Supervisor. She has four Biblical Counseling Certifications. Ellen has a Private Counseling Practice in Richardson, TX. Biblical Counseling and Ministries (www.bcandm.org). Ellen works with many couples regarding trust issues in their marriage. She has seen a majority of these marriages strengthened and restored because of the power of Biblical truth and Gods grace applied in their marriages.

As someone who has served as a Licensed Professional Counselor for over 15 years, I am elated to see the publication of Ellen Deans Marriage Trust Builders. Our discipline desperately needs a robust, wise, and biblical resource to help guide couples through the often arduous, confusing, and complex issue of marital restoration when the covenant of marriage has been violated by infidelity, and this book unquestionably meets that need. The thoughtful process she outlines in this book is truly a gift to counselors, pastors, and the couples they serve!
