Her training includes the areas of reality therapy, solution focused therapy, suicide intervention, critical incident stress debriefing, marriage counseling, satir family drama, co-dependency, anger management, facilitation, and group counseling.

Ms. Wright feels our world would find more healing if more people experienced being listened to in a compassionate manner. She has worked with Hawaiian Huna Shamans, Peruvian shamans, Navajo and Ojibwa elders. She also holds many other certifications and trainings in the healing arts and counseling.
