I enjoy presenting at medical conferences and community events. I am passionate about working with patients to maximize their function and wellness. I am a board-certified Family Nurse Practitioner and have a Certificate of Added Qualification in Headache Medicine. I often say that a major treatment goal is to "put you back in the driver's seat of your life." Self-management for chronic conditions has been a focus for me throughout my nursing career, and I have a personal interest in this condition due to my father and brother experiencing migraine disease. Nothing beats seeing a patient transform from being overwhelmed by migraine days to feeling empowered and in control. Working with patients who have the condition of migraine is extremely rewarding. I completed my Doctor of Nursing degree at the University of Missouri-Kansas City with an emphasis on self-management for chronic migraine. I earned my undergraduate degree in Nursing from Luther College and a master’s degree in Nursing from the University of Kansas. Yoga involves postures, deep breathing, and meditation and has been shown to reduce stress. Guide: also great for allergies, annoyance and general agitation. In fact, I suggest you avoid lifes headaches by practicing this one regularly. You do not need to have a headache or a migraine to practice this one. I am a Family Nurse Practitioner with Sunflower Medical Group in Roeland Park, Kansas. NEW Yoga For Migraines is for anyone wanting to slow down and take some time to observe.
