Getting to Know Michelle
Getting to Know Michelle
I have a dual Bachelor's Degree in Criminology/Sociology and a Master's Degree in Social Work from The Ohio State University. I also completed advanced coursework in mental health/addiction/development disabilities from Columbus State Community College.
I have over 15 years of experience working in correctional, hospital, non-profit, community mental health/substance abuse, and educational settings. My role often functions simultaneously as teacher and coach, fostering a positive, encouraging relationship with clients and using that relationship to reinforce healthy, behavior change.
Currently, I am on the board of directors at the Harcum House and previously served as the Secretary/Treasurer of the Executive Committee. I also serve on the board of directors to the Fairfield County ADAMH Board. I love helping those in need and being an active member in our community.
I was the 2018 Ohio Hospital Association Nominee for Fairfield Medical Center as the Healthcare Worker of the Year for my work with the Substance Abuse Stabilization Unit (SASU) and Project DAWN initiative. As the (previous) Coordinator of the SASU/Project DAWN, FMC was also awarded the 2018 Promising Practice Award for Overdose Prevention by the Ohio Injury Prevention Partnership.
