Bio
Dr. Royce Fitts is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in five U.S. states, an ordained minister, and lover of Process Theology. He holds a Doctor of Ministry in pastoral counseling. Royce is a certified Spiritual Care Professional in The American Association for Clinical and Pastoral Education and a Clinical Fellow in The American Association for Marriage and Family Therapy. He has served as a Military and Family Life Counselor for active U.S. military members and families. Royce also has an online practice dedicated to open-hearted, spiritual counseling and dream work.

Royce enjoys slow running and hiking everywhere from his beloved Nebraska prairie to crowded urban centers.

Above all, he is a lover of dreams, even the dreams that shake, confound, and terrify. They are, he believes, an ancient inner compass, perhaps one of our deepest instinctual energies, that will always guide us—and our world—into healing, wholeness, and beauty.
