I served 20 years as a psychologist in the U.S. Air Force with my husband and six children at my side. Upon retirement from the Air Force, I transitioned into a civil service position with the Air Force as it is my passion to serve those who serve others. I remain in this position to this day. I enjoy growing through training as my professional work has focused on training Psychology interns and Clinical Health Psychology postdoctoral fellows, and my personal life has focused on my role as a mother (and wife--though generally my husband has required less "training" than my children).
Learning MI is a lifelong process, and one of my primary values in training is to instill a sense of curiosity and humility in learning about the impact of MI and how it can be used to facilitate others achieving their self-identified/valued intentions. I have experience training small groups of Psychology doctoral interns and postdoctoral fellows as well as providing supervision in clinical settings through direct observation and co-facilitation of various health-focused clinical groups.
