She was trained in assessment and treatment of combat veterans in the Veterans Affairs hospital system in Seattle and at Madigan Army Medical Base. She then went on to teach at the University of Notre Dame as a post-doctoral fellow, where she created and taught the history course of Mental Health in the Military. She was hired as a staff psychologist there and went on to work with sexual trauma and war trauma cases. She began teaching graduate classes at Indiana University in Psychological Assessment and was hired to teach graduate students at The Chicago Professional School of Psychology for the next decade. Dr. Ramquist moved to California in 2015 and started her own private practice Valencia Psychology in northern Los Angeles– conducting PTSD and Psychological Assessments for veterans and providing psychological assessment and intervention for law enforcement personnel. The heart of Valencia Psychology is providing the highest and most accurate psychological interventions for first responders and medical personnel. Over the past five years, Dr. Ramquist expanded her treatment of post-trauma experiences to also include traumatic births. She now holds an additional credential as a perinatal mental health clinician. Dr. Ramquist works collaboratively with her patients to provide interventions that are evidence-based (i.e., scientifically proven to work well with people who have had similar difficulties in life). She has specialized training and certification in Cognitive Processing Therapy and has seen life-giving changes in her patients through utilizing this technique with combat veterans, first responders, witnesses of war crimes, and victims of assault and rape.
