Along the way, she has gained expertise in many areas of spirituality and witchcraft, including meditation, herbalism, energetic healing, shamanic techniques, tarot reading, and mediumship. She is a healer, medical intuitive and practicing witch. 

Dr. Brannen holds an earned doctorate in applied social psychology and years of study of depth psychology. Her former career in health research and academia brings to her teaching and writing her expertise in evidenced based self-help programs in maternal depression, PTSD, and various childhood vulnerabilities. Her doctoral training explored personality characteristics, interpersonal relationships and well-being. Her expertise in areas of well-being include loneliness, attachment, romantic relationships, social skills, and coping skills. Her training in Cognitive Behavioral Techniques (including Mindfulness Based CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and other evidence-based approaches is woven throughout the courses she teaches. She employs these practices along with depth psychology to interpret the archetypes of the witch and goddesses for contemporary seekers on the journey through healing to wholeness.
