Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy
Swimming, golf and hiking. My best days are spent with my grandchildren and my Border Collie, Luka.
I am an avid outdoors person who loves the beach, the mountains and spending time in both. I enjoy swimming as a Masters Swimmer, golfing at beautiful Turkey Creek with the beautiful granite formations, and hiking in the Sierras. My family's beloved Border Collie, Luka, is the recipient of much love from the grandchildren and my husband and I!
