Since I was 17, I’d always wanted to be a therapist. I learned that sometimes it takes more than just healing the mind in order to heal the whole person. That means that sometimes people need healing on emotional, psychological and spiritual levels.

Utilizing both these degrees has helped me to combine both traditional and alternative therapies into my work.
