Robyn has been with Bella Monte since 2021, and started her journey with us as a Chemical Dependency Technician. Soon after she was promoted to our Lead Chemical Dependency Technician, while simultaneously assisting in our medical department due to her 16 years worth of knowledge from working in the medical field. After showing how much love and dedication she had in these positions, she was granted the opportunity to take her knowledge and skills to our clinical team. Robyn is now one of our Addiction Counselors, and has been a great support to our community. Robyn is not only a huge support to our community here at Bella Monte, but also helps manage a local sober living, and has run the day to day operations over there for four years. Robyn has not only gone to further her education to clinically and medically understand addiction, but also is in recovery herself and adds a personal touch to her care.
