Get to know Ann:

Why did you become a mental health professional?
I started my mental health career out of a desire to help people heal. I believe people have the ability to
heal when given the right resources and support. During my work in the field of substance abuse
counseling, I noticed how substance abuse and mental health were deeply connected. I decided to
pursue a Masters in Clinical Mental Health Counseling in order to provide a wider range of therapeutic
interventions to better assist my clients in their healing journey.
​
What are your interests outside of work?
I enjoy spending time with my family and friends, fishing, hiking, traveling, photography and being out in
nature.
