Since 1968 I’ve held various nursing & counseling positions in RI & Massachusetts, these include: medical-surgical and operating room staff nurse; director of a geriatric care facility, psychiatric charge nurse at a V.A. Hospital; and over the last 24 years, private practice working with individuals, couples, families, and groups. I am in private practice in Providence, RI at The Homeopathic Center of Southern New England, which I co-founded in 2003 with Mark Brody, MD.

I have authored various nursing journal articles and two chapters in a book. Presently, I serve in adjunct faculty positions with Bristol Community College in Massachusetts and with Drexel University in Philadelphia in the graduate program in Complementary and Integrative Therapies, and a tutor with The British Institute of Homeopathy.

(Diploma in Homeopathy) and DHM (postgraduate diploma in Homeopathic Medicine), and a Fellowship with the British Institute of Homeopathy.
