“Don’t ignore reality, deal with what’s there.” ~ Dr. Traci Moreno

It takes courage to ask for help. But when you do, opportunities for healing about. Our guest today knows all about that.

In this episode we talk about the courage to take steps towards personal growth, emotional healing, living in a post-pandemic world, and more. After listening, you will not only want to visit her clinic, but you will also want to find the same peace that she brings to her clients.

Dr. Traci Moreno is a clinical and forensic psychologist with 17 years of experience, and is the owner of Free Spirit Coaching & Psychological Services in Cave Creek, AZ. Her experience includes working as a therapist at inpatient residential facilities for severely mentally ill criminal defendants, as a Senior Psychologist at a maximum-security prison in Los Angelas County, and the Director of Mental Health Services for a community clinic before deciding to slow down her life and bring her passions for spirituality, nature, animals and fitness into her psychology career.

The practice sits on a beautiful 2-acre property with mini donkeys and Zen garden gazebos, which serve as their offices. Dr. Moreno collaborates with other providers and incorporates equine-assisted therapy, spiritual coaching, reiki, sound healing, Thai massage and yoga into her treatment plans. Free Spirit also offered private and customized retreats.
