With an MS in Pharmacy: Medical Cannabis Science & Therapeutics from the University of Maryland Pharmacy School - a new program and the only one in the country, the degree was awarded in 2022. A former journalism professor at CU Boulder, I create educational materials about medical cannabis and consult with cannabis patients, therapists, and medical providers. Being a cancer survivor created a huge and ongoing interest in emotional health and wellness.

Navigating our lives can be incredibly challenging and sometimes we just need some support while we’re figuring it out. We actually all deserve that support, whether we believe it or not. When we have a history of trauma things like relationships become confusing and hard to understand. They may even feel unsafe. And when we don’t have a strong connection with ourselves, connecting with others can feel overwhelming. We might lose ourselves in someone else, or we might experience the push and pull of wanting to be close, but not knowing how.

Together we can map out a plan for you to begin to better understand what you need in your life. I know firsthand that there is freedom and wholeness on the other side of deep personal work and examination of relationships.
