Excited to begin another week of Project Odyssey with Wounded Warrior Project. This week will be a new experience for me as I have the privilege of working with a group of female veterans.

I have tremendous respect for WWP, the work they do, and the meaningful difference they continue to make in the lives of veterans and their families. Grateful to be a small part of it!

I'm proud to announce that I've been selected as a Master Trainer with Responder Strong.

It is an honor to join an organization with such a longstanding commitment to supporting first responders and their families. I look forward to helping others better understand the stress model and providing education that promotes mental health and resilience.

I'm excited to begin this new chapter and look forward to traveling, connecting with first responder communities, and making a meaningful impact along the way.

I'll still be doing clinical work and teaching.
