As the first point of contact for our clients as Client Care Coordinator, my style is relaxed, welcoming, and compassionate. My goal during our initial call is to create a comfortable space in which I can learn about the struggles you are facing and help guide you towards finding the appropriate support. I believe everyone has a unique path and individual road to recovery. I am grateful to be a part of our client’s process of healing.
