Because our code of ethics requires it (and because I like being spicy), I'll be chatting about current events and how they affect us through a social work and social justice lens.

Free 15-min consults if any of this resonates. Telehealth across Tennessee.

I'll mostly be here to think out loud, post things I wish someone had told me earlier, and occasionally vent about the state of mental healthcare.

I can't forget that I'm a Licensed Master Social Worker....

How I got to this work:

Gulf War combat vet → EMT → ER/ICU RN → 12 yrs vet tech → therapy.

Different chapters of caring for people (and animals) in their hardest moments. They all show up in session

Started this account to talk about therapy without the LinkedIn-voice, sanding everything down.

Trauma. Veterans. First responders. The gap between the care that exists and the care that should. The messy parts of being human.

Glad you're here. 🧵
