🎉 Exciting News: Dr. Heather Calkins has been promoted to Director of Psychological Services! 🎉

From the very beginning, Dr. Heather has brought a rare and beautiful combination of deep clinical expertise, quiet confidence, and wholehearted compassion to our team. Her leadership is thoughtful, steady, and rooted in an unwavering commitment to the well-being of both our clients and staff.

She’s a true standout—not just for her brilliance in supporting youth with complex needs, but for the way she collaborates, mentors, and uplifts everyone around her. Whether she’s guiding a team conversation, consulting on a case, or empowering a family through tough moments, Dr. Heather leads with insight, purpose, and deep respect for every person she serves.

And now, as Director of Psychological Services, she’ll continue doing exactly what she does best: bringing wisdom, warmth, and just the right amount of dry humor to every situation. (If you’ve ever witnessed her casually drop a perfectly timed one-liner and gently correct a rogue comma—all in the same breath—you know exactly what we mean.)

We’re so lucky to have her leading this next chapter. Drop your love and congratulations for Dr. Heather below—she’s the real deal. 💜👇
