Hello, I'm Annie Stricker, and I'm absolutely delighted to be a part of the team at Coulson and Associates!

• Professional Background: My academic journey took me to the University of Nebraska Medical Center, where I graduated in 2011 with a B.S. in Dental Hygiene. With a decade of experience in dental hygiene, I've developed a deep understanding and expertise in areas like clenching, gum recession, mouth breathing, and causes of malocclusion.

• Passion for Therapy: My passion lies in identifying and addressing the root causes of these oral health issues. As someone who personally dealt with clenching and mouth breathing, I've experienced the transformative power of proper tongue posture and optimizing the function of orofacial muscles.

• Personal Experience: As a mother of three, I've seen the incredible benefits of therapy in my own children. It has significantly improved their sleep, breathing, and overall oral development. Witnessing these life-changing results fuels my enthusiasm in my work.

• Life Beyond Work: Colorado has always been my home. Growing up on a mountain ranch instilled within me a profound love for the outdoors in our picturesque state. When I'm not working, I cherish my time with my husband and three children. Cooking, walking, caring for our farm animals, and mountain biking are some of the activities that bring joy to my life.

I'm excited to bring my blend of professional expertise and personal experience to help our clients breathe, swallow, and function at their best. Let's embark on this journey towards better oral (and whole body) health together!
