& The Blended and Step Family Resource CenterShirley Cress Dudley is a licensed professional counselor (N.C. #3922) with a master's degree in marriage and family counseling, and a master's degree in education. She has spent over 20 years counseling, coaching, leading workshops and speaking at conferences on marriage and family issues. After becoming a stepmom, she realized that regular counselors and coaches can not possibly understand how hard it is to blend a family unless they have experienced it themselves. She also noticed that there are a great deal of coaches, online, that only have a certificate, and are giving help and advice to families. Due to these experiences, her primary focus became helping blended and step families. BlendedFamilyAdvice.com was her first website, started in 2006. In 2009, she founded The Blended and Step Family Resource Center, with the goal of providing the most excellent resources to encourage, educate and empower blended and step families. In June 2009, Shirley added the service of telephone coaching to those who need individualized support. Shirley Cress Dudley is the author of Blended Family Advice, published by Xlibris (November 2009,) along with other resources for step moms and step dads. She is married to Eric, and has two biological kids and three step kids, ages 15-22. Shirley offers telephone coaching to blended and step families, and also individuals who are starting again, or are in divorce recovery. Her passion is to help people be the best they can be, and to keep marriages and families strong and successful.
