🍁🍂November Employee Spotlight:
🌟🌟Morningstar Martin, B.S.🌟🌟
Substance Use Disorder Associate | Certified Peer Support Specialist
This month, we’re thrilled to shine our Employee Spotlight on Morningstar Martin — an amazing addition to the Cognitive Restructuring team! Morningstar began working with us earlier this year, and in that short time, she’s made an incredible impact through her compassion, professionalism, and dedication to recovery. We absolutely love having her on board and are so excited to see where her future with CR will lead.
Morningstar’s journey is one of resilience, faith, and transformation. Her personal experiences with grief, trauma, and addiction have shaped her into a powerful advocate for healing and hope. Over the past three and a half years, she has served as a Certified Peer Support Specialist, using her empathy and lived experience to guide others on their paths to recovery. With her Bachelor’s in Community and Public Health and her recent achievement of passing the Substance Use Disorder Associate (SUDA) exam, she continues to expand her knowledge and strengthen her ability to support others.
What stands out most about Morningstar is her courage to push through barriers and literally break down the walls of the boxes that society once tried to put her in. She’s proof that with perseverance, support, and belief in oneself, true transformation is possible.
Looking ahead, Morningstar plans to pursue her Master of Social Work and become a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) — a perfect next step for someone so deeply committed to helping others find hope and healing.
Outside of her professional work, Morningstar enjoys traveling, spending time with her family (including her beloved furry companions), recharging at the gym, reading, and sharing her beautiful beaded creations at local craft fairs.
We are honored to have Morningstar as part of the Cognitive Restructuring family and can’t wait to see all she accomplishes in the future. Her strength, kindness, and authenticity inspire everyone around her — and we’re so grateful she’s part of our team!
