Looking to change the world one mind at a time!As a student enrolled at NIU and a per diem employee at a rehab for substance abuse, I am working towards my goal at becoming a professional therapist. I hope to make my corner of the world a little bit better with the skills I have learned so far. These skills include running groups on different mental and behavioral processes, one on one time with patients, deescalating emotionally charged patients and most of all using my experience and knowledge to connect and guide clients through their own recovery!Currently I have an Associates in Arts from Elgin Community College in Northern Illinois. I have been on the deans list every year and am nominated for the honors society and other programs at NIU where I am currently getting my Bachelor of Science.My personal beliefs around providing the best care to patients is to lead from the heart and to execute from the mind! When all is in alignment I can truly be there for the patient and also be present as an employee! Remembering that we are all here to make a difference is key to working together and to hopefully saving lives!
