I am a nurse massage therapist in Omaha,NE. I received my certification for Healing Touch in 2017.

My life experience includes baccalaureate degrees in both nursing and communication/family studies, masters degrees in nursing and communication/family counseling and a doctorate in psychology. I was certified as a healing touch practitioner in 2003 and continue to do 'the work' on a volunteer basis. Most of my nursing experience was in hospice and hospice home care, but have done med/surg, medical oncology, surgery, and nursing home supervision. I lived in Asia for 3 years teaching for the US Military through the U of Maryland and studied cultural death practices, as well as alternative forms of healing. I was a research associate professor for 10 years at the U of Arizona College of Medicine with a focus on sleep disorders and sleep health promotion, primarily for underserved Latinos. For the past 11 years, I was nursing faculty at Arizona State University, directing the Center for World Health. I retired in July of 2015 and am a Professor Emerita of Nursing and Southwest Borderlands Nursing scholar. Earlier this year (2016), after spending several years working with the Pan American Health Organization and submitting application, I received word that our college was designated as a World Health Organization Collaborating Centre to Advance the Policy on Research for Health. I serve a Deputy Director. I continue to train diabetes health educators in Mexico regarding sleep disorders, chronic disease and sleep health promotion, and lecture on complementary, alternative and holistic approaches to healing with an emphasis on and demonstration of Healing Touch. I publish in professional sleep journals, and co-author the chapter on Evidence-Based Practice for Dossey and Keegan's 'Holistic Nursing: A Handbook for Practice.' In my spare time, I am a rabid junior genealogist (starting in 1976), tracing a line on my dad's side back to Charlemagne. Namaste!

I have been a Certified HealingTouch Practitioner since 1995.  My Master's Degree is in Human Development and Family Wellness.  I then finished massage therapy training so I could practice Healing Touch.  I have studied Pranic Healing, Crainio-sacral, Ortho-bionomy, Intuitive healing and am a Reiki Master.  The Healing Touch work is amazing and I love doing it and feel better myself.  I also work with people on stress education and lifestyle issues. 

I am married, have 2 children and 5 grandchildren.  I love learning and reading and being at our summer cabin in MN.
