Conversations with Sherry Scott

Today we’d like to introduce you to Sherry Scott. 

Hi Sherry, thanks for joining us today. We’d love for you to start by introducing yourself.
I am a master’s level Social Worker that specialize in Mental Health. Time Together was started with a thought on ways to reduce psychiatric hospitalization and how to keep individuals engaged in the community through integration, education, and socialization skills. Our program is enriched with extraordinary services, maximizing independence, self-determination, social interaction, and activities of daily living. Here at Times Together, we believe in holistic care, it’s not enough for us to only focus on physical needs we also want to provide our members with insight into their mental health needs, emotional needs, and spiritual needs (if applicable). 

Would you say it’s been a smooth road, and if not, what are some of the biggest challenges you’ve faced along the way?
It hasn’t been a smooth road because I started in the heart of COVID which only allowed services to be rendered via telehealth versus being able to have the face-to-face interaction. 

Can you tell our readers more about what you do and what you think sets you apart from others?
I am a mental health social work profession and I specialize in adults with mental health Diagnosis. I am most proud of being able to see the satisfaction on individuals’ faces when they are provided with services that they may not receive but once a year, but they get it on a weekly basis. What sets me apart is my genuine concern for everyone’s well-being and mental health. 

Have you learned any interesting or important lessons due to the Covid-19 Crisis?
Yes, I have learned to value those that are close to me, and a lot of things I took for granted such as being able to go to the store without wondering if we are going to get sick, traveling, and even being able to spend time with our families.
