Trisha first received her Bachelor's degree in Human Development from Transylvania University in 1993. Trisha received a Master's degree in Communication Disorders from the University of Kentucky College of Allied Health in 1996, is licensed by the Kentucky Board of Speech-Language Pathology and Audiology, and has enjoyed a 30-year career as a pediatric speech-language pathologist. Trisha later completed her Master's degree in Social Work from the University of Kentucky College of Social Work in 2023, and is licensed by the Kentucky Board of Social Work as a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. Her background forms a strong foundation for working with children and parents in a therapeutic setting.

Trisha grew up in Frankfort, Kentucky, and often accompanied her older brother to speech therapy sessions, sparking her interest in working with children and parents. Her close connection with her clients in speech therapy prompted Trisha to develop an interest in improving the mental health of children as well.

In her free time, Trisha likes to spend time with her family and friends, travel, cook, exercise, read, go to church, listen to music, and take her dogs for walks. Trisha also spends her time volunteering on committees and boards of directors for causes she believes in.
