I have been an RN since 1983, and APRN since 1987. Currently I am Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner and Clinical Nurse Specialist. (FNP-BC, CNS-BC & CHTP)  I work at the VA Saginaw MI. Having studied Nursing and  lived in California for many years, in 2015 I relocated back to my state of origin, Michigan.  I completed my CHTP having started with my first class in 2003 at the Naval Medical Center San Diego CA.  I took a course via VA West Los Angeles CA, then completed my HT work with my mentor Liz Fraser from Scripps Center for Integrative Medicine (SCIM) San Diego CA.  I now live on a Farm in rural Michigan, and would like to become established with  a HT network in Michigan.  I am an Advocate for Veterans access to Integrative services and HT.
