Discuss professional learning →Her website describes more than three decades of clinical experience and work informed by trauma, nervous system regulation, hypnosis, EMDR, and Brainspotting. On The Tree, the focus is the knowledge she can share with professionals who teach, lead, and guide others.
PROFESSIONAL CONVERSATIONS TO BEGIN

Ask about professional consultation and support for practitioners developing their EMDR work. Confirm prerequisites and any credential-related requirements directly.

The Network is new. The publishing legacy beneath it is not. This is where the page remembers what women have already carried into homes, churches and study circles.
Scripture, study, reflection and representation—made to be opened, marked, carried and passed forward.
