“Because I admired the therapists and individuals already working at Parkside. I viewed many of those professionals, from my experience working in mental health, as mentors. I have always admired our CEO, Audrey Smith’s approach and commitment to providing services in this area and was excited to have the chance to work with her. I feel proud to be a part of the Parkside family and believe in the mission to influence the community we serve by building upon their strengths and resilience to bring about the power of healing.
I knew I wanted to be a part of that!”

“I choose to work at Parkside because Parkside has provided me the opportunity to grow as a clinician and gain the tools and skills that are necessary when working with my clients.

I have benefited from the close relationships that have been formed with my fellow therapists working with these men, as we share very similar views re: respect, accountability, and the importance of seeing human value in the people we serve.” 

Chris Laythe LCSW

“I chose to come to Parkside and remain for so many years is that I am constantly surrounded by deeply caring and devoted individuals who are willing to journey through the process of healing and recovery of those who have experienced significant trauma and tremendous loss.“
