Complex Trauma Certificate
Since working in an out-of-home residential program for adolescents in 2016, Myrto became very interested in trauma and its impact on the brain and behavior. She has attended several trauma-informed trainings and completed a complex certification course on evidence-based interventions for complex trauma. Myrto has learned that traumatic experiences oftentimes are the root of many other mental health disorders and addictions. Childhood and adult trauma have since become a passion of mine.
Why Healthcare
Myrto believes in the importance of relationships in healing from trauma and other mental health issues. Creating a safe, validating space for people to talk about, process, and heal through/from their experiences is very fulfilling to me. Mental health has been chronically undervalued in our society and it shows. She has endeavored to help others understand the importance of prioritizing their mental health.
