Peregrine is an Advanced Schema Therapist Trainer/Supervisor for individuals and couples and Director of the Schema Therapy Institute of the SouthEast. She is passionate about introducing Schema Therapy to therapists worldwide, especially in war-torn regions. Peregrine believes that Schema Therapy, as a developmental integrative therapeutic model, is well-suited for clients undergoing life changes, seeking to improve their relationships, or looking to modify aspects of their personalities. Peregrine is actively involved in the International Society for Schema Therapy and serves as Chair of the Ethics and Conflict Resolution Committee and North American Training Directors Committee. She is a member of the Trainer Development Committee, which mentors the global development of ISST-approved Schema Therapy Training Programs, and a member of the ISST Couples Special Interest Group. Before moving to North Carolina, she held academic positions at Columbia University and New York University Langone Medical Center. Peregrine has published in peer-reviewed journals, authored book chapters, and contributed to the Encyclopedia of Psychology and Religion (2009) by Springer. In addition to her certifications in Schema Therapy, Peregrine is a National Registered Health Psychologist, certified as a Sex Therapist by AASECT (American Association of Sex Educators, Counselors, and Therapists), and an ordained Episcopal Priest. Her academic and clinical interests in interdenominational faith dialogue and how mindful spirituality enhances the Healthy Adult Mode evolved early in her training. Peregrine finds peace in nurturing her inner child by tending to the gardens and beautiful creatures on Hyacinth Farm. She resides on this 22-acre farm with her husband, Harry, whose recently published book describes their daily challenges – An Accidental Farmer and a Mindful Reader. Along with Harry and Peregrine, the farm is home to their rescue dog, Theo, who doubles as a therapeutic protector, a flock of chickens, and way too many guinea fowl. Peregrine is a member of the Hillsborough Garden Club, which promotes pollination efforts in the United States, the Junior League of Durham and Orange Counties, and other non-profits focusing on conservation, sustainability, and food scarcity.
