More About Me

About Me

I have a master’s degree in Clinical Psychology and my counseling experience includes working in inpatient, community outpatient and addiction treatment settings. I have also managed a private practice.  However, I really found my counseling passion in 2001 when I started working with people to help them figure out how to quit tobacco. That’s when I started learning the effectiveness of Motivational Interviewing (MI) for helping people with heath behavior changes.  

In 2002, I started my first MI training business and provided  Motivational Interviewing and tobacco control training to thousands of providers including the New Mexico Medical Society, New Mexico Dental Association, American Cancer Society and Blue Cross/Blue Shield.

In 2008, I started my first full-time MI position for a disease management company.  In that role I developed, implemented, and evaluated live and virtual MI training sessions for 75 plus clinical and non-clinical staff for a company-wide adoption of MI.  That was also the year I became MINT certified trainer.

In 2015, I started my second full time MI training position with the Arizona Regional Behavioral Health Authority, Arizona Complete Health (formerly Cenpatico Integrated Care).  While there, I facilitated over 300 MI training sessions to thousands of behavioral health, physical health, criminal justice, oral health, addiction, and leadership groups.  I also created MI Coding and Self-Assessment Forms and provided on-the-job MI coaching in a variety of environments including physical and behavioral health, criminal justice, and methadone clinics.

In 2018, I started my second MI training business, Motivational Interviewing Learning Exchange and now work as a full-time MI trainer, consultant, and coach.

Trainer Statement

My passion and mission are to support people who work in the helping professions.  I love training Motivational Interviewing because I use Motivational Interviewing as the core style for my training.  In other words, I focus on the participants learning through exploring and building upon their own strengths.   Everyone interacts and learns from their peers and we have a lot of "ah-ha" experiences together.  It is so much fun!
