Dabney joined O’Hehir University in 2017 as an instructor and continues to work part-time in clinical hygiene where she also mentors fellow hygienists. In September 2022, she expanded her expertise by opening her own clinical herbal practice, where she serves clients as an herbalist and health coach with a special focus on women’s health. Dabney is deeply passionate about health and wellness, dedicating her efforts to empowering patients and the community to explore the transformative potential of lifestyle choices and nutrition.

As a committed lifelong learner, Dabney had the desire to earn her BS degree even during her time in hygiene school, achieving her goal by graduating from O’Hehir University in 2015. Her action research paper, “Will my patients notice a difference in their oral health and energy levels if I ask them to give up added sugars for one week?” reflects her dedication to exploring the links between diet and health.

As a dental hygienist and a woman, she understands the phases and cycles of women especially those to work as hygienists. Dabney also hosts a podcast, The Lifestyle Herbalists, where she shares a healthy dose of happiness and wellness insights. You can find it on all major podcast platforms.
