I have been with Lindsey Wilson School of Professional Counseling since 2008-I enthusiastically support the mission of SPC. I am student centered in my role as professor and Regional Academic Director.

My research interests involve social and cultural factors that affect the self-concept. I am currently examining the cultural worldview of Appalachians and implications for counseling.

I returned to my ancestral roots in Eastern Kentucky. I currently reside in the beautiful mountains of Pike County with my husband and colleague, Daniel, and my daughter, Indigo Elise.
