“Nicky's House is an organization that helps adolescents age 12–17 who are living with mental illness. A lot of the adolescents we recruit are from psychiatric hospitals that really need a space to talk about their feelings with other peers. I am not a psychiatrist or a therapist, but I have been down that road before. I have been an adolescent living with mental illness, and I am an example as an adult that things will get better. I have been living with mental illness for 10 years. I like to say that I picked up some wisdom and empathy along the way. I will support you or your child as much as I can.”

"My name is Brittany, and my faith has been a powerful coping tool in my journey with mental illness. I'm here to support adolescents who are navigating both their mental health and spiritual growth. My mission is to encourage young people like me to know that their mental illness doesn’t define them—and it should never stop them from thriving."
