These topics are the basis for her book (in-progress), "Trauma, dissociated identifies and madness in mental health services". She is on the board of directors for the Hearing Voices Network - USA, National Association for Rights and Protection Advocacy, and the International Society for Professional Psychology & Psychiatry.
