Behavioral health therapist Bex Rebecca Montes explains how being a role model for youth brings her so much joy. “Being a behavioral health therapist working with teens is creating a space for them to express themselves and share their wisdom," she says. "In therapy, each student I work with has shown a deep ability for self-reflection and a willingness to learn, offering incredible insights from which I've learned a great deal. I also enjoy the fun and joy we experience together. Young people have such a great sense of humor! I cherish the role of being a supportive adult who walks alongside them during times of change and difficulty. It's incredibly rewarding to team up with young people in their healing process, providing tools and watching them transform, showing themselves that change is possible."
