As Executive Director of Desert Rose, Denise is passionate about providing life-changing resources to lead women in their transformational journeys through recovery. She understands instinctively the importance that Soul-Centered TreatmentTM can play in reclaiming one’s life. "Every woman who stays with us at Desert Rose is given the opportunity to choose the life they were created to live. Our job is to meet these women wherever they are on their journey in order to educate, demonstrate and equip them with the keys to unlock the door to lasting growth and true transformation. In addition to learning how to make new and different behavioral choices, the women of Desert Rose begin to listen and trust the still, small voices inside their souls. When individuals uncover what lies within them, real work happens. They discover a true newness of being."Denise has been facilitating and creating meaningful change for women for more than a decade.
