    Love this. We need more trained professionals to help fill the gap of limited mental health resources.

      This is going to be my path
      This is an answer to how I can share my story and amazing recovery from mental health issues and addiction. I got help and have gained a healthy happy productive life.
      I have been trying to find a way to help others and this fits so well
      The need is great!
