Bio
Doug Zabriskie
Dr. Larson met with our clinical staff at Balance Mental Health and Wellness Center. I was impressed with her knowledge, her experience, and her genuine forthright style. She brought a wonderful, positive energy to the room, and the discussion. She was confident, as well as "right-sized", not appearing better than, or worse than, but being confident and humble. She is a force to be reckoned with, as well as the sort of person who can challenge and exhort, without condescension.
Hilary Swanson
I was the editor of WARRIOR, Theresa's incredibly powerful memoir. Theresa was wonderful to work with, always met deadlines, was open to feedback, and easy to communicate with. Writing a memoir is no easy task, but Theresa was very courageous throughout the entire process. I really admire the bravery Theresa showed in telling her story. Her goal was always to help other people find strength and the book has helped many do just that. I'm so proud of Theresa, who truly embodies the word WARRIOR and is an inspiration to us all!
