Carol E. Gutierrez, RN, MS

Carol Gutierrez is a seasoned nursing professional with 30 years nursing experience with patients across the lifespan. She has worked as a nurse in medical-surgical nursing, nutritional support, the emergency department, the operating room, nursing education, and has recently returned to the emergency department, in Arizona’s busiest emergency department.

Carol has been involved in integrative therapies since 1993. She began her exploration with Reiki. This opened new pathways of thought and possibility. She began her quest to return to the softer side of nursing. She pursued her education in integrative therapies, which facilitate healing through a variety of techniques. She currently is a nationally certified massage therapist, and holds certifications as an Advanced Holistic Nurse, Healing Touch practitioner, Clinical Aromatherapist, and Integrative Guided Imagery practitioner.

Carol enjoys education, both teaching and learning. She is currently in school at the Southwest Institute of healing arts, where she is enrolled in the Mind-Body Transformational Psychology degree program. From there, she will complete a degree program in Holistic Health.

While she was faculty at a diploma nursing program, she introduced holistic concepts into the curriculum. In addition, she offered optional workshops at the school on integrative therapies, massage therapy, and relaxation techniques for pre-test anxiety.

Carol became certified in Clinical Aromatherapy in 2004, and became a certified instructor of Clinical Aromatherapy with RJ Buckle Associates in 2005. Clinical Aromatherapy is part of daily life for Carol. She uses essential oils for self. family, and friends for health and healing.

I am willing to travel nationally to share the clinical aromatherapy course.
