About Luanne

I am a National Certified Peer Support Specialist. Most important is I have lived experience with Bipolar, anxiety, depressing,PTSD..I have a chronic medical condition so I understand what that is like. I am certified in grief counseling. I have experienced normal grief and complicated grief. I can walk you through the steps and will be there for you. I know what it’s like to file for disability and I can help you with that process. I have been homeless before but I got out of the black hole and you can too. I am a certified Youth mental Health Coach. I am also a forensic certified Peer Support specialist. I am also in class right now to become a first Responder group and hope to start some groups for First Responders soon.

My Recovery Story

I have been in Recovery since 1995. At first I did not know how important self care and coping skills were till I started using them. When I started to use them my life got better

My Motivation To Help

I love helping other people. I was a Nurse for over 33 years. Also a Firefighter and EMT. Helping is in my Genes. I know Recovery is in everyones reach and I am here to help
