Joe Ann Kortman, B.A.,B.ED
I have a keen interest in mental health and helping others. I started her career as a Secondary School Teacher and taught in Australia, England, South Africa and Canada. I taught for close to 8 years and then became a police officer. Now retired from policing, I have had personal experience with mental health struggles and founded the first inpatient Ketamine Residential Program.
I believe everyone should have access to treatment and is excited to be working with clients.
