I am a graduate of both the Master’s program in Marriage & Family Therapy at UN-L, and the Medical Family Therapy post-degree certificate program at UNMC. My previous education includes 2 years of clinical psychology graduate study at Pepperdine University in Los Angeles, and undergraduate studies in Person-Centered Therapy at the Metanoia Institute in London.

I have extensive experience of working in the child and adolescent partial hospitalization and level III school programs at Immanuel Medical Center. I have worked as a clinical intern in the Dept. of Family Medicine at UNMC, both in the Durham Outpatient Center and at the SONA clinic in South Omaha, as well as clinics in Lincoln, Nebraska; London; and rural Southern England.  I currently work part-time on the inpatient service at the recently opened Lasting Hope Recovery Center, also in downtown Omaha.

I am a full clinical member of the American Association for Marriage and Family Therapy (www.aamft.org) and sit on the board of the Nebraska Association for Marriage and Family Therapy (www.nebraskamft.org) and I am President Elect of the board of the Association of Private Practice Therapists (www.privatepractice.org).
