Starfish Promotes from Within!

June 29, 2016 by Starfish Family Services

GrimmcompressedI started as an Intern at Starfish in 2000: now I’m the Director of Child, Youth and Family Clinical and Trauma Services.

In 2000 while in college I interned at the Starfish Shelter. After graduating with my bachelor’s degree, I was hired at the Shelter. I held a variety of roles including supervisor. Once I obtained my Master’s Degree, I became a homebased therapist on the Starfish Behavioral Health Services team. I have been given many opportunities here at Starfish to grow professionally and become a leader within the company. I am now the Director of Child, Youth and Family Clinical and Trauma Services. Throughout my journey at Starfish, I chose to focus my attention on childhood trauma and toxic stress. I received the opportunities to become a Nationally Certified Trauma Focus Cognitive Behavioral Therapist (TF-CBT), a trained Supervisor in TF-CBT, and I participate in various County and Statewide initiatives to bring trauma awareness throughout the State of Michigan. Starfish is always expanding and there are many opportunities to grow here.
