With over 25 years of experience as a licensed psychologist, I am passionate about bringing my psychology expertise to empower people toward mind-body-spirit wellness, purpose, and compassionate living. I speak at conferences, podcasts, and other events to teach about strengthening resilience and well-being, and the psychology of thriving with a plant-powered lifestyle. See my Media page for recent presentations, interviews, and guest articles.
