She utilized her GI Bill to obtain a Bachelor\u2019s in Psychology and has spent the last 15 years working in community mental health.<\/p><p>She is passionate about teaching organizations and healthcare professionals how to work with service members, veterans, and their families in a more informed and ethical way. Her mission is to be the translator between the well-intentioned civilian and the veteran in order to bridge the military-civilian divide.<\/p><p>Tiffany also participates in quite a few local and national veteran organizations as a way to stay plugged into her community. One of the most influential has been her work with the Colorado Veteran Treatment Courts where she helps fellow veterans who are judicially impacted and dealing with mental illness and substance abuse.<\/p><p>She is currently partnering with another veteran to build a community of veterans and supporters where rebuilding camaraderie, structure, and purpose to support post-military transition and recovery from addiction and mental illness combine with trauma-informed peer support and clinical care when needed.
