Lindsey joined 妻友社区 Extension as a grant-funded program manager in May 2020. She transitioned into community health and wellness after 11 years of serving the Treasure Valley as a licensed clinical professional counselor in both agency settings and private practice. Lindsey's specialization in treating trauma, addressing health from a comprehensive perspective, and attending to unmet needs on the individual and systems level has provided a valuable foundation for her work in public health and community wellness. Lindsey is also a trained yoga instructor, having owned and operated a yoga studio in Canyon County for several years. Facilitating community workshops on health and wellness is a passion of hers.
