My Approach
My approach comes from my own life experience.
After graduating from Capella University with a Ph.D. 2010, I was where I wanted to be in my career and I was loving life with my family.
But, when my mother died of pancreatic cancer and then my husband was diagnosed with terminal cancer I was left floored. Caring for my husband and his resulting death struck me to my core.
I kept thinking to myself, as a Ph.D. student, I am supposed to have all the tools to work through things. But having a doctorate did not insulate me from the experience of trauma. Instead, I was left with doctors who did not know what to do with me since I was 'high functioning".
​
My experience motivated me to go back to school to become a Clinical Psychotherapist that could help people like myself who are hurting and seeking healing.
