Emily Remsen

Emily began helping with Bible studies for adults with developmental disabilities in early elementary school, that she now leads on a monthly basis. From there, her passion for people of all abilities grew. She attended the University of Redlands, where she received her BA in Communication Sciences and Disorders, as well as Liberal Studies, followed by her MA in Learning and Teaching with a Multiple-Subject Teaching Credential. In 2018, Emily became an Adverse Childhood Experiences Qualified Educator and began training groups and individuals in the effects of trauma on the body. In 2021, Emily was fortunate to be accepted into a Trust-Based Relational Intervention (TBRI) Practitioner Training, through Texas Christian University's the Karyn Purvis Institute of Child Development. In the Fall of 2023, Emily became trained in Orton-Gillingham, a reading intervention methodology, through The Institute for Multi-Sensory Education (IMSE) and also became a Wrightslaw trained special education advocate. She continues her education, taking classes in special education, educational technology, reading intervention, trauma-informed care, and all things special education, currently. She is actively involved in several professional organizations, including state, regional, and national TBRI practitioner groups, Traumawise, the Pacific Southwest District regional Lutheran Association of Resource Specialists, and ACE's Cohort- Orange County.
