Colleen has been working in mental health for nearly 10 years and has a deep passion for helping people through difficult times in their lives. Colleen knew she wanted to pursue a career in mental health early on in her high school days and has been an advocate for mental health treatment since. Being able to step into a person’s life and help them through some of their most difficult times is something she truly appreciates the opportunity to do. Colleen holds a license for clinical social work in NC and SC where she provides both in person and virtual appointments. She has worked in various levels of mental health but has found her passion is in outpatient mental health. Colleen believes in the partner approach to mental health where both parties bring important aspect to the table and together, they work through the client’s difficulties. In her spare time, she enjoys spending time with her three small dogs and her husband. On any given weekend, you can find her reading a book, attempting arts and crafts, or enjoying nature.
