I moved to Webster City, IA from Phoenix, AZ in April of 2012 to be closer to my father. I became a client of Central Iowa Recovery in May of 2015 and in the summer of 2018 I became a Peer Support Specialist. I help empower clients by developing a supportive relationship with them, helping them with personal goals or whatever is needed (taking them to get medication, food shopping or just listening to them talk). I love working with my clients, making them laugh, smile, and go “huh?” while they learn about themselves and become empowered. I see clients in Hamilton and Hardin Counties and can be reached at 515-297-4853.
