“Treatment transforms patient’s mental health struggles into a life of purpose” by the Poughkeepsie Journal

Congratulations Lisa Ricci, People USA’s Dutchess Embedded Peer Specialist on sharing her story for the Poughkeepsie Journal : “Treatment transforms patient’s mental health struggles into a life of purpose”.

“I used to look at mental health struggles as a curse and think ‘why me,’ but now I’m working in the field and see it as a gift to help me connect with people,” Ricci said. “This is such an opportunity that I have been truly honored to get, and it’s something that has really put my life on a trajectory I didn’t know I was capable of.”
