Bio

I am a retired Addiction Therapist from the VA where I worked Veterans with dual diagnosis. I am a 100% disabled Army Veteran. I love my family and my friends. I live an easy non-chaotic life. I was diagnosed with depression in 1990 and have learned over the years how to manage it with therapy and some medication. My husband and I spend our spare time with our three cats and our little dog. We like the theatre and we like spending time with my parents who live two miles away from us. I have periods of times where I feel disconnected or sad. I feel like I am on a teeter totter trying to find balance by trying to be in the middle of it. I love helping others. I was accepted to USC but chose to not attend due to the big cost. I am planning on attending PSU's satellite program for social work.
