๐ Join us in wishing a very Happy Birthday to Katherine Mitchell, our Therapy Program Director & Therapsit! ๐
Katherine has been serving survivors with compassion and expertise since 2017, bringing her heart for healing to Bridging Hope in 2023.
With a Master`s in Social Work from the University of Central Florida, specialized training in trauma treatment (including EMDR and CST-1) and years of experience supporting survivors, Katherine is a true gift to our team and the clients she serves.
Outside of work, you can find her hiking with her family, staying active at the gym, or playing outdoors with her children. ๐ฟโจ
We are so grateful for Katherine and the light she brings to our mission every day. Help us celebrate her today in the comments below!
Thank you to the Junior League of Gainesville-Hall County for brightening our group room through their Done in a Day project! ๐ This space is often the first room survivors see when they arrive, and their hard work helps make it feel like a place of healing and hope. โจ
Itโs National Forensic Nurses Week! ๐ At Bridging Hope, weโre proud to have two in-house forensic nurses (Emily & Janie, pictured above!) and nine amazing contract nurses who make sure survivors receive trauma-informed care every day of the year.
