“Social Work chose me. I have grown to love this profession because I can impact the lives of others, helping them implement skills and techniques to cope and overcome issues that are impacting their daily lives. Sometimes, patients need a listening ear to get something off their chest that has been there for a long time, and whenever I am able to do that, I can see the weight lifted off their shoulders, and that is the best feeling.” – Jonathan (Blake) Berry, LMSW
