Laura Ross, PMHNP-BC Medical Director |
“I have been working in psychiatry since 2006. I started working in the Emergency Room at an urban hospital in Cleveland Ohio which gave me a drive and passion to help and protect the rights of those with substance abuse and mental illness. I became a Psychiatric RN in 2010 and worked in a variety of settings. This experience was both humbling and made me more determined to continue my fight for all to have access to quality care. In 2012 I graduated from Case Western Reserve University in Cleveland Ohio with my Masters in Nursing and started my path to fulfilling my ultimate goal.
As a Nurse Practitioner, I have worked with children, adolescents, adults, geriatrics, and substance abuse. At GenHealth, we have a truly interdisciplinary approach to psychiatric care. We all share in the belief that we have a responsibility to care for each other with compassion, dignity and love for one another. I am looking forward to having GenHealth be your partner to health and recovery.” |

Chloe Thomas, MS, LPC |
“I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor with vast experience in mental health. I am experienced in providing therapeutic needs and mental health services to the adult prison population as well as individuals within our community. I believe that mental health services or lack of thereof, are directly correlated with high recidivism rates in the state of Arizona, therefore, I inspire to not only implement rehabilitation, but encourage those to work on the very core of traumas and/or internal struggles that influence crime.
I hold a Master of Science in Professional Counseling from Grand Canyon University of which was earned through coursework of diverse classes related to the field as well as an integrated practicum in which I earned from Lifeline Professional Counseling Services. There, I worked closely with professionals who specialized in family counseling, trauma, substance abuse, and couples’ survival. I also facilitated multiple group therapy sessions which consisted of comprehensive Dialectical Behavioral Therapy that was tailored for the youth. As I continue my journey, I am excited and honored to continue to provide quality mental health services tailored to our community.” |
