What you may not know is that criminal justice has always had my heart. ⚖️ Long before Mindfully Restored, I had a passion for understanding the people behind the cases—and how mental health, trauma, environment, and life circumstances intersect with the criminal justice system.
That passion is a huge part of the vision behind Mindfully Restored: looking beyond the case, supporting the whole person, and creating pathways toward healing, restoration, successful reentry, and reduced recidivism.
I’m excited to get back to this work and bring together two areas that mean so much to me—mental health and criminal justice.
And a special shoutout to Dr. Grant, who has always been like an academic mother to me—pushing me, challenging me, and encouraging me to keep growing. 💛
This feels less like starting something new and more like coming back to something that has always been a part of me.
Mindfully Restored — Beyond the case. Supporting the whole person.
