Dr. Brooke Schneider is a child, adolescent, and adult psychiatrist practicing integrative psychiatry in Fort Collins, Colorado. Dr. Brooke is also the co-creator of Women Strong, an online women's wellness program that covers the foundations of health through lessons, daily challenges, expert interviews, and a supportive community. Women Strong is all about empowerment, education, and connection! Dr. Brooke is passionate about decreasing mental health stigma and providing tools to increase ease and self-compassion along the health and wellness journey. Dr. Brooke’s superpower is HAVING FUN! Some people have called her a non-psychiatrist psychiatrist, largely due to her playful, loving, and big personality (and equally big smile)! She has a huge and sensitive heart, and loves being with people and connecting through our stories, unique gifts, and shared human experiences. You can always count on Dr. Brooke to laugh with you, to cry with you, to love you unconditionally, and to be kind and generous.

Sifu Dean Keller MSOM, L.Ac. is the founder of Ssu Tao Pai Gong Fa (Great Way Martial Arts) and Quantum Healing Energy. He began traveling to China and throughout the U.S. in the late 80’s to study with Master Wang Peisheng, Daniel K. Pai and Share K. Lew to learn their martial arts and advanced internal energy systems. He is passionate about sharing the Taoist Meditations, Tai Chi & Qi Gong due to the profound effects they are known to have on body, mind and spirit. As an acupuncturist and herbalist, he strives to bring the same Taoist approach to his clinic to not just treat symptoms but treat the root cause of illnesses. When he isn’t chasing his four kids (they are all a little older now, so not so much chasing), you can find him speaking Spanish to his spicy Beta fish, Señor Pantolones del Fuego.
