Bio
Dr. Emily Hervey is a licensed clinical psychologist and field traumatologist. She comes from an international background, having grown up on three different continents. Since then, she has provided psychological care and trauma-response training globally, including Nigeria, Kurdistan, Chile, Jordan, Spain, and Kenya, both in direct response to disasters and local leaders’ equipping.
Both teaching and research are exciting ways to facilitate learning and discovery, particularly concerning the care of the underserved. Hervey specializes in global mental health, trauma, and member care; and has a heart for the hurting. She developed a program, The Tree of Life: Finding Healing and Growth in Jesus, to help those exposed to trauma and equip them to help others. She and her husband are committed to going wherever God calls them and currently live a mobile lifestyle.
