Thelma McCellan felt led to pursue a new path, which brought her into the world of mental health after spending nearly 20 years in education. Although she entered this field with no prior professional experience, Thelma quickly discovered how much she genuinely loves the work. Every day, Thelma continues to learn and grow in her understanding of mental health. This field has taught Thelma that mental illness affects people from every background—regardless of ethnicity, age, or economic status. "Being part of a team that helps individuals rebuild and reclaim their lives has been one of my greatest honors".

Recently he was call to duty to a deployment setting in Central America. Joshua was called to provide support for humanitarian aid, disaster relief, and counter drug operations. "One of my greatest achievements was following the footsteps of my father, my great grandfather, and my great great uncles to answer the call to serve. Joshua goal is to eventually serve as an Army Behavioral Health Officer as a LCSW. What lead him to the mental health field was the dismissive remarks of the importance of mental health in military culture and in his ethnic culture.

Love and care should never require losing yourself.
Healthy relationships, of any kind, include respect, communication, and boundaries. Saying no, asking for space, and protecting your emotional well-being are all signs of strength.
